Yes, I think it will be a good alternative to replacing my Rev A  
LunchTrayDeluxe (1 GHz AlPBG4).  USB2 and the screen pixel density  
are really the only reasons to get a new machine.  Of course, all  
this depends on the price.  I'm hoping that this upgrade comes in  
under $500, but I'm not holding my breath.  Under $500, it's a done  
deal.  No chance over $1K.  Hard decision between the two.  Depends  
how much of motherboard is replaced (Video?, USB2?).  Questions to  
which I will have to patiently wait for answers. <sigh>
