Well, this just made my decision alot simpler. Now if I go with the BlackBook or the MBP, I get the 2gb RAM and 250gb HD that I was going to upgrade to anyway.
Hmmm... silver.. or black...

The extra 2GB RAM is only £240 rather than £450 as it was...
So:
2.6Ghz CPU
4GB RAM
200GB HDD
Hi Glossy display and remote controller...
£2304...how does that sound?

I'm not sure of the conversion, but I'll bet you could still find RAM cheaper elsewhere.
UK store weird....
Not exactly the same, it has conflicting information... I think they didn't quite finish the update yet... twits.

Your right, but to keep it simple I am gonna order it allin,. I can put it down as a business expense so will pay the tax man less

fair enough
I've been wanting another Mac notebook for a few weeks now. I was almost off to to the store to pick one up last night and I thought I better wait till this morning. Yes, 2.4 GHZ plus the 2MB and the bigger drive is now worth the price.
Ummm dude.
Again, not sure of the conversion rate but in AU Apple charges an extra $1000 to upgrade to 4gb RAM (well used to, I can't see the store now)
In comparison, I can get 2gb Kingston RAM modules for $72 each.

Seeing the specs, I just wanna order the MBP, despite it being bigger than my current PB-G4.
I am so torn between the Black MB and the MBP. But the LED Widescreen and the anti-glare is what I am always hoping for. Especially now with new GFX VRam.
Decisions....decisions....

Just asked a UK store representative and the new macbook pros do have 256, 256 and 512 graphics RAM. They just need to update site.
#Hi, my name is Mick. Welcome to Apple!
#Mick: Hello, how can I help you?
You: Hi. The MacBook Pro is showing max 256 Vram ... obviously a mistake as should be 512 as per the main page.
#Mick: Exactly
#Mick: That's correct
#Mick: it should be 512mbs
DalAU site is still down but the new product pages are up.
EDIT: Sorry, only the MacBook page is up.

I ordered! It's my first Mac, and this is my last PC. I'll be gone when it gets here, so I get to come back to it!
MBP:
2.5GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
MacBook Pro 15-inch Widescreen Display
2GB 667 DDR2 SDRAM - 2x1GB
200GB Serial ATA @ 7200 rpm
SuperDrive 8X (DVD+/-R DL/DVD+/-RW/CD-RW)
Backlit Keyboard/Mac OS - U.S. English
Accessory Kit
The excitement is overwhelming. At least until it gets here. THEN it'll be overwhelming!

Same here, but I opted for the 2.6 and the extra 2GB RAM...
Now, I can donate my current MBP to the missus... ;-)

15" or 17" that is the question. Price is no issue but I'm concerned about the weight-to-value ratio.
