I just ordered new Mbp coz I couldent wate my other got dropped by brother and then he spilt water on it ...grrrrr
 
judging from the buyers guide on this website, it looks like it's almost a month overdue for a release. there is the announcement (most likely tablet) happening on the 26th.

I am assuming they will use this as well to release the latest refresh of MBP's, most likely with the same case but better hardware specs.

My problem is that I will be in the USA until the 27th, and was going to order a MBP for myself. Now that I know of this announcement and waiting for an update, I am considering waiting BUT as I leave USA on the 27th .. do Apple usually make their announcements and the products available that same day/week? Or we will have to wait?

This is so annoying. First time I've got money to buy a MBP, and I'm stuck now of not being able to get one because I'll buy it and they'll upgrade it but I won't be in the USA to return/replace it.

Speaking of, what is Apple's return policy. If I buy a MBP can I take it back into the shop if they announce an update and get my money back and buy the new one (if within 14 days?)

Yeah you can return it if a new one comes out within 14 days but really whats the point? Just order a new one when it is announced and have it shipped to wherever you are going.
 
as far as customs are concerned, I'm simply taking the laptop I brought over with me back home. they won't know any different nor bother to investigate. it won't be boxed, will be as carry on and/or in suitcase. job done.
 
Looks like it's going to be March. Probably late March, around when they ship the tablet perhaps?

yeah I've always wondered how they enforce customs when someone can say they've owned it before

Usually customs doesn't care if you are just carrying one of something, even if it's new in a box. They only really care if you have several of the same things.
