What do you guys think we can expect from intel based powerbooks? Other changes in hardware, such as gpus would naturally follow, wouldn't they? Also, how is the battery time going to improve as a result of this? And more importantly, when is it reasonable to start hoping for a new processor powerbook?

Share of your wisdom (or bold guesses)

Looks like dual processors are in the future. I suppose Apple got frustrated about unresolved thermal issues affecting the G5. For market reasons, new lines of laptops will have to be developed ASAP. Lots of engineers will be working overtime. Perhaps by the end of the summer.
