I've been debating if whether I should get the Penryn MBP 17" MBP or just wait for the Montevina based MBP. What I don't know is, is it worth it to wait? How much better is Montevina compared to the Penryn MBP? I play on using it for College/University so I would be using it a lot, and probably keep it for 2-4 years.
 
I feel that new MBP with Montevina will have GeForce 9 series like 9600 GT or related.

If you want feel like future then wait for it.

If you feel need own laptop now then buy it now.
 
What are the major differences between the Santa vs Montevina? Is the Montevina that much better compared to the Santa in terms of performance?
 
Here's a great visual comparison:
