Not sure if anyone has seen this yet:

Illuminated/visual feedback touchpad patent app. filed by Apple yesterday.

Might be a hint of what's to come in the new MBP's?

I mean I could just be literally retarded but it says in the article its for the ipod classic so don't get any kind of hopes up

PUBLISHED yesterday, filed some time ago. I've seen this info linked before, and quoted it in a thread I made a week ago or so.

I don't post often

But I feel the pain everyone, I've been waiting for a couple of years to get a macbook pro. to make matters worse 2 months ago I cracked my Powerbook G4's 12' screen... Im one smooth operator

 

[Derbus]

Sign me up please.

Should we hold hands? or say some kind of mantra about strength in numbers?

Man, you're more patient than a sloth hanging upside down on a slippery branch in a rainstorm

this would only work if we charged steve's house while holding hands

It says later in the article that the technology could also apply to touchpads.

I've always wandered how 'coombyah' was spelled. Thanks!

That is perhaps the best turn of phrase I've heard this month. Thanks. I needed that laugh.

Count me in for the update if it comes soon. If they delay much longer, I'm going to have to order anyway... Perhaps if we all flew together we could get some sort of group discount on charging Steve's house?

 

[senorfrog97]

I'm kind of waiting. Just bought a new 17'' SR mbp ($2000 ) to hold me off but plan to sell it and buy new hopefully soon.

Oh I doubt that's how it's spelled I kinda just made it up.

 

[bensh]

How do I get in the waiting list? Or could someone just put me in??

Thx

 

[rael]

Good news?

I guess so!

 

[djellison]

Well they're out of 15" 2.4ghz refurbs in the UK.

[calabi]

do apple only make releases on tuesdays?

 

[Richdj]

count me in too i guess, im waiting too.....

15" for me, if the rumours of the chip upgrade are true, ill be having the 2.6machine with extra hard drive space and 4gb of ram if it isnt standard.

 

[tjcampbell]

I have a 15" MBP and I love it, but it's just not portable enough for the amount of flying I do.

So whatever revision comes out next I'll likely be hitting up, be it a new smaller MBP or a speed bump in the macbooks.

 

[add2mac]

Put me on the list too
Been waiting since November

Just speed bump will do current MBP is overpriced considering its sepc...
