The key thing here is whether your ibook supports firewire target mode. Basically you hook the two computers up to each other and reboot the ibook while holding "t" down. THe new computer takes all your files and settings and puts them into place. The ibook will be left intact. It really couldn't be much simpler.
When you get the macbook, just go through all the setup dialogues. It's a piece of cake.
