Powerbook/iPod Update

Yesterday, we returned the 12" Powerbook and 20GB iPod and got a 15" Powerbook and 15Gb iPod. At this point, I have only opened the Powerbook and let me say that it is slick. Apple makes some good computers (they should for the price). Last night I spent most of the time trying to get it setup (downloading and installing programs).I did run into some wireless network issues. The Powerbook comes with 802.11g which is supposed to be compatible with 802.11b which is what I have. At first, it didn't work at all, but then it worked for a while last night. Then it stopped again. I made some changes to my wireless access point (switched channels because I thought I might be competing with one of the neighbors). I ended up plugging it into the network to do a couple of things before I went to bed. This morning, it recognized the wireless network without a problem. I am interested in seeing if the problem continues.
