Gizmodo posted that a leak reported the release date of intel's Ivy Bridge to be Q2 of the upcoming year.

Where does that leave the MBP lineup? Do you guys think the next update of the MBP will be sometime in Q3 with Ivy Bridge?

If you'd ask me -- but that's just my thought and of I know only as much as you do -- I'd say next Macbook Pro Q2 2012.
- Better battery life, this will be marketed the new feature, I think
- Slightly better graphics/a bit faster, but marketing-wise not focused on those specs
- SSD's are still darn expensive, so standard HDD, 500 GB on 13", 1 TB on 15" and up
That's all, I think. I will guess end of April.
