iBook Screen Angle

On Saturday I posted that the iBook's screen would hold its position anywhere from about 30 degrees back through 135 degrees. Below that it fell closed and above that it fell open flat. Apple responded with some very good news:

"I just wanted to let you know that this is a known issue that will be corrected before the product ships. The final version will hold the screen at whatever angle you set it to, just like the current PowerBook G3 machines.
