ThinkSecret is reporting that Apple plans to shuffle the screen sizes of the iBook lineup when they release the first Intel portable at Macworld Expo next month in San Francisco. According to TS Apple will replace the 14-inch iBook with a 13.3-inch widescreen model sporting “WXGA resolution of 1280×720, serving up about 15 percent more pixels than the current 14.1-inch model.” TS goes on to say that the 12-inch iBook may be in the process of being phased out. As I reported on my ZDNet blog, sources tell me that Apple is phasing out Firewire from the iBooks as a way to keep costs down and to further differentiate the PowerBook as the professional-level Apple portable.
