Interested? Totally. Unfortunately I'm a poor broke student. The absolute most I can really get together is about $300, and only if it would prolong my battery life. I really like my 2400, and it does things that I couldn't do with an iBook. On the other hand, the new iBooks are faster, have more RAM, support OSX, better battery life and can use Firewire, USB and ethernet at the same time. To put $500 into my 2400 is almost enough to buy a new iBook. Sure, the 2400 is smaller and such... but as a student... I would definitely be down to swapping someone fifty or so hours of labor for one though. Anyone need a corporate website? Tutor your kids in algebra or chemistry? Talk to your kids on AIM so you and your spouse can have some private time? Peace Aqua
