Indeed, they are largely incremental changes. But they're attractive changes, as far as I can see, and the most attractive are actually in the iBook line: a) they now use Airport Extreme, not Airport; b) slot-loading optical drives, no longer tray-loading; c) minimum speed 1Ghz; and d) cheaper - down �50 on the 12" to �799; �100 on the lower-level 14" to �899; and �150 on the 1.2Ghz 14" to �1050.
Oh, right. I hadn't looked at the iBooks. The 12" PB is certainly better though I'd like to see it with essentially the same features as its big brothers. It still lacks equivalent graphics support, Firewire 800, S-video port, Gigabit Ethernet and an illuminated keyboard.
