OCD much?
I've had five internal SuperDrives go out on me over the years. I find it easier to just buy an external then replace the one inside, though with them likely being removed entirely in the next refresh, it's not something I'll have to worry about anymore anyway. The new slim ODD's (both DVD and Blu-ray) fit easily into most standard laptop cases, so it's not an issue.
Yeah, they are not great. The one in my 2009 MBP still works, but it's more like a dying mongrel, than a sleek Lassie. It struggles to read many discs and makes horrible grinding noises, then after five minutes, it spits out the disc in disgust. Those discs work fine in other drives.
yeah unless there is free 4GLTE or better in the cloud worldwide..you can forget about that.
I've barely ever used mine in my PC, my current laptop, and my server (dell power edge 2950) ever. I have a synology box to stream movies via DLNA. It'll be cool to have a laptop without one and just buy an external drive.

Me want now! Come on Apple take my money already!
I was never a fan of my internal drives grinding.

Watch the new macbook pro comes out and the only change is that it has ivy bridge heh.

LOL, source is Digitimes.
It's more likely for the 13 than the others because its screen is smaller; retina would be easier to implement. (It'd also be lower res. retina, so cheaper too.)
Ok guys, I need all of your powers for just a second here.
So turns out I had a business trip to LA during WWDC, which just got cancelled, damn, which means I wont be able to pick one up while im up there.
The thing is, I also plan on upgrading the MBP to the max with a 512 SSD and 16 gigs of RAM. I work in video editing so yes, it is needed.
I currently have a friend in the US who is coming back my way on the 4th of June, so hell be able to mule me back my stuff, which if I may add is considerably more expensive where I am located.
This is where you guys come in, I need your opinion on what my safest bets will be in terms of selecting RAM and SSD, so far I have 204 pin 1333mhz 16 gig RAM from Komputer Bay, and the CT512M4SSD2 from Crucial as a SSD. Also considering buying an external Blu Ray drive from Samsung...
Thoughts? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm pretty sure (100%) that if the 15 gets retina, the 13 will too. If anything the 13 is the MOST likely, because it's smaller plus it's Apples best selling laptop size
MBP is not all about OSX. There is a lot more to it than what meets the eye.
MBP is a genius business investment...

Calm down, haha
newest estimate says July now, and hints at either a combined MBP/MBA launch or a new product that is a mixture of both: http://www.appleinsider.com/article...cbooks_creating_labor_shortages_in_china.html
Source seems to be digitimes, so might as well just ignore it
edit: Ok, the information seems to be the same as in the slashgear article

I meant,HDD will stay in place where is it now,there wont be a place to add a second 2.5" instead OD because casing will be thinner.
You do know that it's not actually 100% fact that the new MBP will have SSD? And if it is no one definitely knows what the min/max SSD capacity will be. So I'd probably hold your horses until you actually know what you'll be getting in the new MBP.
And not to mention that WWDC is June 11-15, so even if it is announced there and immediately available for sale, it is too late for your friend "muling" it to you on June 4.
