Hardmac posts what it claims are the product numbers and rough descriptions of the iMac and Mac mini which are expected to be released tomorrow:
The new iMac models and their corresponding references:
- MB417: Entry level model
- MB418: "Mass market" model
- MB419: high-end model
- MB420: ultimate model
The entry level model should come with a 20" display, while the three other models will feature a 24" panel.

For the Mac mini, the references are the following:
- MB463: entry-level model
- MB464 high-end model

They cite a "reliable" source that has told them that both models will become available tomorrow. HardMac.com is the english counterpart to MacBidouille and are generally considered trustworthy.

Earlier today a photo of the Mac mini packaging was leaked and is increasingly looking to be legitimate.

Available tomorrow?

So this'll be the pilot for the product upgrades at Apple's desire rather than hosting a big event? I know there's the March 24th, but I suspect that'll be for something really cool.

Well, the white MacBook was quietly updated, and quiet updates are nothing new I guess..
 
YEEEESSSSSSSSssssss!

Please say Apple stores will have them tomorrow, so I can tear-ass it out of work to pick one up!
 
I hope they are real .. and tomorrow ... so the whining can stop for a day or two. :eek:
 
Pretty much confirms it. ABOUT TIME, especially on the Mini :)

Interesting choice on making the mid level one 24". Wonder if it'll be the better display technology (if there's one thing I dislike about my mid range 20" it's the poor quality - even for a cheapo - display that came in it)
 
I sure as well hope so.
I don't really think someone is likely to pop part product part numbers out of thin air.

i would guess that the entry level is a bare minimum machine, while the "mass market" will be the suggested retail spec which they will carry the largest supply in stores like the apple store, best buy, etc..

This is a normal apple release, i don' think there is anything "pilot" about it.
I don't think the March 24th has been confirmed yet.
There is no need for an event for just upgrades.
 
Good...if the updates turn out to only be spec update, then this low key thing makes sense...and if an event does some in march, I'm expecting greatness!
 
So Mac Minis and iMacs tomorrow and Mac Pros at the end of March event.

iphones / Snow leopard at WWDC.

Done :)

Yipppeeeee:D
