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?)
