Colored iBooks?

Looks like someone at Apple may be trying to cater to the female Japanese market.

AppleInsider is reporting that the Intel iBooks, reportedly due in the Spring, may be released in different shades or colors. Apparently someone in the know has seen color variations at Apple's development labs.

I hope that these new laptops, whether they are called iBooks or MacBooks, are actually small enough to appeal to women. (Sorry Apple, but the current 12" G4 laptops are still far too heavy for J-gals!)

Let's further hope that Apple actually releases something in the Spring.

Note to Apple: Spring ends on 22 June.
