New 12" Powerbook: how does it feel?

[larry98765]

I've got my eye on the new 12" Powerbook, but wonder if it's all it's cracked up to be:

How does it compare physically to the 12" iBook. I know it's got the G4 processor, etc. But has anyone been to MacWorld Expo and played with it? Is the aluminum case just like the titanium case of the bigger models? and is the keyboard as junky-looking as the iBook's?

Just wanted to say, the keyboard on the iBooks may look "junky", but its not. It's very solid, stable, and feels perfect if you're used to a laptop keyboard, and even if you arent, its easy to adjust to.

Does anyone know if the 12in model has the backlit keyboard?

The backlit keyboard is only on the 17 inch model.
