iBook Updates... Details? [Updated 2]

As a followup to the initial iBook update rumor posted last week, there have been more scatterings of reports that we will see an iBook revision this week.

ThinkSecret can confirm some Apple product announcement this week, and feel the iBook is the likely candidate.

A few scattered and unconfirmable reports claim that iBooks have already arrived and may start at $999 (down from $1099 now). Other expectations point to minor speed bumps and Airport Extreme built-in.

[Update] MacRumors has received confirmation that new iBooks are indeed on their way in the following configurations:

iBook 12" 1.2 Ghz G4
512K L2 Cache
256 MB Ram
30 GB Hard Drive
