This is my second attempt to buy an ibook on this forum, if no responses ill bite the bullet and go the ebay route. Looking for an ibook with @ least 20 gb HD. Airport and combo drive a must. Looking to spend under $350. If anyone interested please PM. Thanks

Try MacSales/Otherworld Computing (OWC):

iBook 12" G3/700MHz with Airport, 256MB/2... (IBG3720APV16) at OWC

Only $279. You might find a better price on eBay or Craigslist, but I think those from OWC have a 30-day warranty.
For all the trash I talk, I sure own a lot of Macs...

I've been looking for the same thing you have.

This is one place I have been debating on going with. Let me know if this helps.

I do. It's raggety around the edges but solid on the inside. I prefer to think of the looks as a theft deterrent.

500 mhz
onboard ram plus 128 (which makes it either 190 or 256 - can't remember off the top of my head)
20gb hd
combo drive
airport
ac adapter
brenthaven sleeve
$350 shipped
