Well..
Is it possible to upgrade this 466Mhz FireWire ibook G3 with CL3 SO-DIMM (PC133), or does it only work with CL2 (PC66/100), as specified by Apple ?

PC 133 should work fine, but as usual should don't necessary mean will.

It'll work with PC133 RAM just fine, but it'll run at PC100 speeds.
At least, that's been my experience with the iBooks. Also, certain types of 512MB SO-DIMM don't work in those iBooks. I think they're the ones that are "Low Density", but I can't recall correctly.

Not sure that the onboard CL2 PC66 will work with any CL3.. It would be interesting to know if someone has one working in an 366/466 iBook.
OWC doesn't show it as compatible : http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/iBooks-PowerBooks/G3-iBook/

I tend to trust what OWC has to say in their compatibility charts, they've never steered me wrong on anything memory related.

If I were in USA I'd get an OWC memory.
Currently, in France, those PC100s are difficult to find while one can still get CL3 PC133s. If only I had one, of any capacity, I would try myself...
