What happens when the battery wears down? Can you recharge wirelessly too? That'd be so sweet...;)

It's the 12.1" ibook with the DVD/CD-RW drive. It was $1542 w/ the airport card before tax. I got it at the apple store in Santa Clara. Unfortunately I have to plug it on to charge it, but the battery does last 5 hours.

That's a good way of thinking about it :)

I'd like to own an iBook with the 14.1" screen but it costs mucho $$$

I don't need a GF card for anything, I don't do games (might get wc3, but that's it), and the 12.1 isn't real big, but the whole laptop is less than 5 lbs, which is cool :)

Dont even think about it. I'll get Viper GTS and ffmcobalt to stuff you in the back of your accord with 3 cinder blocks on top and we'll make you subside on a bottle of water, 2 boxes of cheese its and a loaf of onion bread until the sale ends.
