'anything i can do?', yes - return to the Apple experts and have them resolve the problem they failed to do yesterday.
Once it is deemed that the iBook is working - stay inside, or in the vicinity (food court, fountain, etc.) of, the Apple Store, and use the iBook for an hour or two.
Do such actions as:
Run some software applications.
Close the iBook's lid, waiting, and then open it - does it still work?
Restart (reboot) the iBook - does it still work?
Turn OFF the iBook, wait a minute or longer, turn ON the iBook - does it still work?
Repeat the above actions in random order and at random intervals.
Only when you are totally satisfied, return home.
