Apple's iBook Specs
According to Ogrady's Powerpage (http://ogrady.org), Apple has posted developer tech notes on the iBook's hardware for the sake of hardware and software developers. This is quite unexpected i think. Available in HTML and PDF.

What is most interesting is that the AirPort is on the ATA bus that
the CDROM sits on. Some neat 3rd party expansion options come to mind. :)

Not a big surprise. There are a lot of similarities between an ATA and a 16 bits PCCard bus. And I beleive they have a dbdma channel just behind it, so basically, this stuff might work a lot like a good old ISA ethernet chip ;)
