Nice! 13" with the new battery and display (I'm hoping to get one in August) 🙂

Looks like firewire is back on the non-Pro.

 

[silverpig]

SWEET! The 13" is now a MBP!

 

[silverpig]

$1199 for the new 13" MBP. I'm thinking that's what I'm up for 🙂

I'm in for one of the new 13"-ers. Just need to decide if it's worth springing for the $1499 one . . .

for a mac fan, there really is nothing to hate on for the 13".
(i'm sure appleaing for non-mac fans to excepting the price.)

They shaved 6 gigs off the Leopard install, that's pretty nice.

safari4 - 8 times faster than ie8??

 

[James Bond]

So far everything sounds pretty good. Not too feature heavy (yet?) but speed is good.

Anyone know if the new batteries in the 13.3 and 15.4 inch models are the same ones used in the 17" model? I've noticed they lowered the entry price for the 15.4" but left out the 9600M...just how good or bad is the 9400m?

Cover flow through Safari history makes a LOT of sense to me. No more "was it this one?" when searching for a specific page.

Apparently they are the same ones yes. Lithium polymer.

I thought I read that the battery was the same. Not sure about gfx.

Man that is soo, so unbelievably lame. Even lamer that if you have a jailbroken phone you can MMS with no problem since it's AT&T holding MMS back.

Engadget:
10:58AM "29 carriers will support MMS when we launch... AT&T will be ready at the end of the Summer." Laughter. What? End of Summer? You're kidding us, right?
