Well, the iBook looks great, and it's priced nicely. But it lacks three things that I was looking for:

1) 800x600 resolution is too low. 1024x768 is minimum for real work.

2) No DVD.

3) 6.7 lbs is way too heavy. I was thinking this thing would be more like the eMate or 2400. Anything over five pounds is too heavy to carry around a lot. 3 lbs is the sweet spot. The new PowerBook G3 weighs less and has a lot more.
