Apart from the lack of FW800 (which i happen to use) i think two USB ports is taking the mick a bit, yes I know that is the same number as the last PB, but with all that extra space.. just seems a bit cheap. I mean, ipod, mouse, printer. While it may be easier to use a hub i would at least like the option y'know, for when i'm on the go.
I would absolutely love to see a comparison of Airport strength using macstumbler, it looks as though there is some more antenna going on there with the MBP.
Someone asked about the side air vents, the are indeed, GONE! -

My four gripes with the MBP are:
1. Ugly huge power brick.
2. Missing some vertical screen res to the camera, i'm sure they could have managed both.
3. The IR receiver, i'd rather just skip front-row all together and have a cleaner front.
4. Give me more ports, i'm greedy.
I for one am waiting for a second revision and CS3, so at lesat I notice a big speed improvement when I upgrade my 1.5pb.
