Try to get that in 4.6lb Wintel equivalent...
I guess there's a compromise between weigh and funcationality. PB12 is a nice compromise
Also don't forget:
6. Decent keyboard, the keys are just as big as a standard keyboard.
7. External video port supports up to 2048 x 1536 resolution in DUAL monitor mode (while the 12 inch display is still 1024 x 768) both at the same time. The majority of the compact windows notebooks only are capable of supporting 1024 x 768 on two monitors simultaneously, the exception to this are the very few that have built in Radeon or NVidia (or similar) video chipsets. Not only that, the PowerBook 12" has DVI, XGA, S-Video, and composite video outputs possible with the appropriate mini-DVI adapter.
8. Bluetooth built in--I may have to get a bluetooth capable phone really soon!
