iClam: XGA Clamshell on Ebay

The Ebay USA vendor odds-n-ends4you sells maxed out Clamshell iBooks with a 1024x768 display panel - starting bid around 500 US$, but only for buyers in the USA and Canada. Apparently he uses no OpenFirmware Hack and DVD Playback works as to be seen on Youtube. The Clamshell Modification Project published a new method using the terminal application to achieve the correct communication with a XGA Display panel, but there are no informations if the DVD playback problem is solved or not.

Having left in 1985, Jobs returned to Apple in 1997 and unleashed his corporate son, Ive. Apple's software was in a mess and its market share almost invisible. So Jobs went for taste, and Ive produced a series of extraordinary, wildly postmodern machines. With their translucent, candy-coloured plastics and, in the case of the desktops, large, inviting handles, they had an almost overpowering tactile quality.
