I would say the new price should be $999.

It dropped to $929, highly considering it but may wait a few days to see if anyone finds any significant battery life improvement with Ivy Bridge.

I hope to be pleasantly surprised, but I don't expect a "significant" improvement in battery life.

That's what I was going for, noticeable might have been a better choice than significant. If Ivy Bridge could squeeze out an extra hour, that would be a pleasant bonus but per Apple's own specs the run time is still pegged at 7 hours.

Big price drops on refurbs this morning in the UK.
