The first three versions of MBP's have a white LED. Is the version 4 of MBPs (the ones that came out today) the new LED color like the ones in the MBA? More of a blue-ish color to them?

I'm curious to find out. The pictures on the apple website are too similar to get definitive answers from.

Anyone who picked up the new version today care to respond?

Are you talking about the LED screens itself, or the backlit keyboard?

Looks very similar.. I think the backlighting has remained constant since the MBP was introduced. I remember seeing a post on O'Grady's PowerPage when the MBP was first introduced that compared the Powerbook G4 to the MBP keyboard light.. very dramatic difference.

Ahh here is the link.. Pretty neat difference
