The whole PowerBook line up got an upgrade, with the 15" model now sporting the much rumoured goods (1.25GHz, backlit keyboard, bluetooth, Airport Extreme), available from today. Apple also announced a new wireless keyboard and mouse."

    What's stopping Apple from getting OS X to run on Pentium? FreeBSD already has good support for PC hardware... MS would be irrelevant... I wouldn't have to wait for my Dual 2GHz G5... I could choose a P4 or a G5...bring 'em on! The world would be a much better place.

    Yes.

    However, am I the only person who thinks that a 1 button Bluetooth mouse is like a sports car with no gas pedal?

    If I hadn't buggered up my Fujitsu laptop's BT stack trying to get the mouse from MS's (crappy) Bluetooth Desktop working with the internal adapter I might be interested in an Apple BT mouse, but I currently use a Logitech four button wheel mouse.
