The PowerBooks are amazingly cheap now. You can get the 12" for $2300 CAD! 
That's a full-featured laptop at the same price the iCraps were in 1998 and 
1999! And, if you're willing to go consumer (crapsumer ;) you can pick up a 
new 700 MHz iBook 12" for $1300 CAD.

Eric.

PS I too doubt they'd introduce the laptop version at the same time as the 
desktop version -- give them a year, perhaps two before they get the power 
consumption down far enough (I imagine you could fry an egg on the G5s they 
should be anouncing today... at least if the slip-up on Apple's own web site 
was legit... 1.4 GHz -> 2 GHz (dual) 64 bit G5s).
