Will next Powerbooks have firewire2 (gigawire or whatever the hell it is)
I just want to know what people think.
Judging by comments by Apple that we won't see any new comps at MWTK, it seems WWDC, MWNY or some event inbetween is when we'll see them. Do you think apple will have it's next generation of firewire then, and will the powerbooks get it?

I still think we'll see new PowerBooks in May though.
I guess it all comes down to whether powerbooks and powermacs get debuted side by side or not.

Also, there are no FW2 products on the market, like camcorders, how would a FW2 laptop be in any way useful? Seems like a buzzword to me.
<strong>with internal harddisk rates of about 16MB/sec, what real use would FW2 be?

While there aren't now, I'm sure they will be. It would be valuable because it would keep the machines functional longer.

Let me guess, you said the same of the iMac and USB, right? If you build it, they will come.
