After eight months at 867 MHz, Apple speed bumped the little AlBook to 1 GHz and upgraded video with the Nvidia GeForce FX Go5200 graphics processor.

The 12" PowerBook G4 catches up with the rest of the line by adding DVI support (with a mini-DVI to DVI adapter) and dual displays while moving to an optional accessory for S-video support.

The 1 GHz 12" PowerBook officially supports a 1 GB upgrade for up to 1.25 GB of RAM. Other features include built-in Bluetooth and support for the "five times faster" AirPort Extreme.

In many respects, it's more like an aluminum-clad iBook with a G4 than a low-end PowerBook, including not support for gigabit ethernet.

The 12" PowerBook G4 has the third-smallest footprint of any Apple notebook to date at 93.74 square inches, beat out by the PowerBook 2400c (89.25) and baredly edged out by the PowerBook 100 (93.50). It had the lowest total volume of any Mac 'Book until the MacBook Air was introduced in 2008.

Cautions

Note that some vendors are substituting PC2700 RAM for PC2100 modules. You can't use both types of RAM in the same machine, and since onboard RAM is PC2100, you cannot use PC2700 in this 'Book.
Portable Computers: Models Which Do Not Have a Backup Battery notes the iBook has no backup battery to retain time and other settings when the main battery is removed. A small capacitor holds enough energy to maintain PRAM contents for 20 seconds, so switch batteries quickly.
