Got the 2.53
I took delivery of a 2.53 on Friday - 1/30. I used my neighbor's friend whose an Apple employee and was willing to give me their Apple discount.
Only cost me 2 bottles of Merlot...LOL!!! Coupled with my local tax rate here in CA, I saved over $400 buying retail/online.
So far I'm impressed. The screen is almost too bright at the dimmest setting (like to use it in bed at night)....but that's a complaint that's a 'positive'.
The build quality is stellar, especially when compared to my 2 year old polycarbonate Macbook.
Still getting used to the trackpad. Right now I just have it set to click upon tap...I don't really think I like the mechanical click, but then again, I didn't use the button on my Macbook all that much either. The track pad does feel fantastic (texture, friction) and the larger size is definitely welcomed.
