iBook Refresh Wishlist

In the Apple community, I think the hottest hardware speculations are for the next iBook refresh.  Most of the stuff on thinksecret.org point to a possible June 26th refresh date. I presume the estimates are based upon Apple wanting to generate some press during the National Education Computing Conference starting on June 27th.  Unfortunately for me, I just bought my iBook in March, and would have no reason to upgrade to a new one yet.  Unless of course I can convince my wife that she needs an iBook over a Mac Mini… which really shouldn’t be too hard.  I think she likes my iBook almost as much as *I* like my iBook.

Anywhoo, the iBooks are overdue for a refresh, and this is what I think they should be bumped up to.
