Apple Planning Intel-Ready iBook Debut for January

I knew that Apple was in a hurry to release Intel based notebooks as soon as possible, but January is right around the corner, and that leaves me thinking that Apple rushed it a little too much, but Think Secret has found out from a reliable source that the Intel processor will be in the iBook by January.

It is not known exactly what processors or price points the new models will debut at, but it is thought Apple will expand the iBook line with one additional model and will lower prices—in some cases possibly $200 or more—to entice current Windows users and prove to the market it will be more competitive with the likes of Dell, Gateway, HP and Sony.

I can’t wait to see how this effects the market as my friends and I look at the shift to Intel CPU’s as a good move by Apple, and if done right, they could make some good money selling their stylized hardware to thousands of non-mac enthusiasts. I know…I know…Apple is a software company…but with all the iPod, iBook, iMac machines that are hardware, I think Apple is also a hardware company and can do great at that.

Thanks Think Secret.
