No, I just know where to find the AppleSpec Database:

<http://www.info.apple.com/support/applespec.legacy/index.html>

These are Apple's smallest and lightest notebooks:

PowerBook G4 12": 1.18" x 10.9" x 8.6" (= 110.6132 ci); 4.6 lbs.
PowerBook Duo: 1.9" x 10.9" x 8.5" (= 129.71 ci); 4.2 lbs.
iBook dual USB 12": 1.35" x 11.2" x 9.06" (= 136.9872 ci); 4.9 lbs.
PowerBook 100: 1.8" x 11" x 8.5" (= 168.3 ci); 5.1 lbs.
PowerBook 2400: 1.9" x 10.5" x 10.5" (= 209.475 ci); 4.4 lbs.

And it looks like I was wrong, too. The 12" PowerBook is actually the
smallest notebook Apple ever made! (Although not the lightest: that is still
the duo.)
