i just thought about this

the 17"p/b has a keyboard the same as all the others right
from the 12"iBook to itsself

so here is the point why not just put the 17"p/b keyboard with the lit keys into the iBook

i do realise that some serious modding would have to be done but does anyone think that it is possible

Different connectors in different locations + (iBook keyboard latches in and is removable + PB's is builtin and not removable) + iBook doesn't have ambient light sensors = No
