New iBook 12"; G3 or G4??

Hey, does anybody know what processors the 12" iBooks will have next? I was going to purchase an iBook, but I looked at macrumors.com and they said that new ibooks and powerbooks are coming this September. I don't want to get a G3 iBook if G4s are coming soon. Anyone know? - [EMAIL PROTECTED

Re: PB 1400 question

Re: PB 1400 question

The plastic screen was standard on the 1400, along with a few preprinted inserts. Since they were on PowerBooks, Apple called them "BookCovers". The 1400s shipped with eps and ClarisWorks templates so that you could make your own BookCovers (the templates might also be part of OS 7.5.3; look in
