Anyone got any inside dibs on when the new powerbooks will be released? Seems like there's a rumor of a upgrade coming soon from other websites. Also, the sales lady at macmall is really trying to get me to buy the powerbook within this month where she even dropped the price lower than the student discount which makes me wonder that they're trying to get rid of the current powerbooks to make room for the new one's. I think they know....>=)

I heard something similar to that at macrumors.com Seems like it's coming out around March?

MacMall has no clue what is going to be released until a little more than a week out...I used to do their web graphics so myself and the rest of the team would be told the days we had to get into the office at 5AM to post new images. The reps are told the same time we were.
PB rumors have been around for a year now...My guess is a G5 PB in one year. June is a possibility but probably won't happen.

I am in the same boat. I'm about to purchase a new PB. I know that there is no way they will have a G5 PB for a while.
Based on all the recent gossip about the PB, my bet is a mediocre speed bump sometime this month.. sooner rather than later I hope because i would be pissed if I bought a PB and 7 days later it got bumped. Check out http://buyersguide.macrumors.com…
it won't tell you when but you defiantly get a sense of how they tend to operate.
