i would wait for the dual core G4… it isn’t too far off, is it?  :?

If you want something quick and responsive, i wouldnt get the iBook yet.  There should  be an update soon, and that should upgrade its video card, processor and possibly ram. 

I personaly think the iBooks are too slow anyway, and i would get the 12’’ powerbook.

I have an iBook.  It’s kind of slow, but it is old, 500mhz G3.  I would just go to an Apple Store and try it out, see what you like best.  http://www.apple.com/retail
