After 4 years of loyal service, i'm thinking my 2007 MacBook needs a replacement. I really like the 13" screen, 11" MBA is too small for me, 15" MBP is an overkill, both too big and costly. So i'm trying to decide between either, 13"MBA or MBP, the price difference isn't that big, so i guess it won't count for me.
I need help deciding which one to pick.
I don't plan to move around all day with it and i like good perfomance, so i'm more prone to the 13"MPB with the recent update, MBA stays in because of it's SSD and weight. BUT, should i wait for a next year update with Ivy Bridge processors, with the higher performance these will bring, both to the MBA and MBP, or grab one of them right now?

Wait... You'll be so glad you did. There's lots of great new "little" features coming up in the new models of both lines.

Battery life will greatly improve, as will many other areas.

Seriously, where do you guys get all this information from? :D
