According to Think Secret, the Powerbooks are just getting a minor speed bump and a bigger HD. Probably not sensational enough for Steve to include in the keynote..

Mark my words: the Mac Mini is a step in Apple's miniaturization technology, leading to the next-gen PowerBook: not G5, but dual-G4.

I really hate to be the people who have waited and waited and waited for the Powerbook G5. Hopefully by now they'll realize riding the wave of product life-cycles is no fun.
