Is this the next iBook?
Last Updated: 4/23/2001, 9:10:19 AM
(Update: The image sent was not the new iBook. For info on the 2001 iBooks, see www.apple.com/ibook.]
A reader from Singapore sent a note and image he found at an OEM's web site that was listed as an iBook. (There are rumors of a new iBook to be announced on May 1st at the Apple/Jobs PR event, but of course nobody knows for sure).

" Hi Mike,
I found this deep inside one Taiwan OEM manufacturer's site. It is listed as Apple iBook Could it be the next thing coming from Apple in May?

Singapore"

I have no idea what this really is, but it's interesting. (Where's the keyboard and trackpad? - unless it's a PDA like device with touchscreen - but no keyboard is a negative for a computer in my opinion.) Note what appears to be a webcam at the top center (like the Sony VAIO CX mini-notebooks). [Note - a reader thought what looks like the Sony Viao webcam is perhaps a holder for a pen/stylus - which makes more sense.] I guess we'll all know on May 1st.
