I believe it is the Mid 2005 iBook G4:
http://support.apple.com/kb/SP43
The spec database is always helpful:
http://support.apple.com/specs/
Entering your serial number at that page will show you the manufacture data of
your machine, in most cases. Not all, serial numbers can be in error, or a
hardware swap may have changed it, and the tech forgot to use the serial number
update tool to put your old serial number back in place.
Finding the last manufacture date for any Mac can be a bit of a pain, I have
found wikipedia to be about as good a resource as possible for that:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBook
On OS 9, I think Newer used to make an app that listed all Macs, and broke them
out as to how many slots, max ram, what it came with, what drive it had, what
the max drive bays were etc. And you could upload your system profiler report
to help them keep it up to date. I'm not sure if they kept that up on OS X or
not.
Good luck. Have a good weekend.
