The little 12 incher has moved up to 1Ghz, the higher end of the two 15 inchers gets illuminated keyboard, and the top speed (for the 17 inch model) is 1.33GHz.

USB 2.0 is in there.

Was hoping for a bit more improvement in the 12 inch model though.

The refurb. 12" PB makes the iBook a horrible value really...anyone in need of a cheap portable should grab the 867Mhz 12" PB, with it's G4 chip, it'll way outlast any iBook offering.
