The 500 MHz 12 inch Dual USB iBook G3, like its clamshell equivalent, has some issues but is usually usable.

The display has a noticeable scratch.
The trackpad will sometimes either not work or jump all over the place when touched. It is recommended to use an external mouse.

2020-03-19: The machine arrives at my parents' place from an eBay seller. One key on the keyboard is dislodged, and an 802.11b AirPort card is already present.
2020-03-19: The incorrect materials that were shipped with the clamshell iBook G3 are identified as matching this model.
2020-03-21: 📈 A 512 MiB RAM stick is installed (? -> ?).
2020-04-06: The dislodged key is removed and reinserted into the keyboard. No further issues occur.
2020-08-??: The computer is transported to my apartment.
