If you go to apple they have them for 899, 999, and the 14 inch for 1199...

So basically 100 dollars off for the G3 over the G4....

to me that makes no sense.... so you get the G3 and no panther for 100 dolalrs less... why would you do that?

Makes no sense to me.

Two different processors in the same line at the same time. Never been done.

They still sell the G3 iBook, but only to education.

They'll sell some of the old models say if they wont ship for a few months. E.g. the LCD iMac, the G5. They kept the G3 imacs and G4 towers around because there was a 2-3 month window when they wouldn't be able to ship most of their systems.

As opposed to now, the 12 inch is available today...

And partly because of cost concerns, but they want people to have the benifits of the G4 in the iBook.. It's worth it.

iBook envy growing... haven't felt this way since 2001.
