I don't know how that compares to the various Ti models, but I give you that datapoint...

Well, I guess I've been lucky up till now, but it looks like my 700
icebook has finally developed the infamous video failure. I bought it
used almost a year ago, and other than being on it's second hard drive
since right before I got it, I haven't had any other issues. From what
I've been reading on the Apple discussion forums, it seems that once the
board is replaced it's usually not long before it goes bad again. Seems
to be that it has a design flaw in that these things just run way too
hot. I think once it's fixed, it's going to eBay, and I'll be looking
for a replacement. But not another white iBook! What would folks
recommend that would cost under a grand, but with comparable speed and
capability? I was thinking of a Tibook, but I use Airport and I've heard
so much about the poor reception with the Ti's. Wish I could afford a
new 17" er!
I was tempted to suggest a Titanium, but since you're concerned about AirPort reception, then it might not be a good idea.
Then, if you exclude the white iBook, there isn't much left except maybe a
Pismo (PowerBook FireWire), but it will be a tad slower than your iBook and
it might also have less video memory.
