Tiger has officially been announced! I'm ordering my PB today after I give Apple a call and see if they will offer me Tiger as the $20 dollar upgrade. This is awesome!

Are there things that I should do right when I get the PB? Such as charge the battery fully before using or something along those lines? I'm so excited!

yes. i think you need to "condition" the battery the first time you use it.

that just means run it off a battery all the way till it dies. the manual will show you how.

which model?

Going to call Apple right now to see if I will be eligible for the discounted Tiger.
