In the 15" models as well? I know not a ton of people have a use for it but I do need it and I don't really want to lug around a 17" and was wondering if possibly in the next refresh would they put them back in the 15" models also.
Got a tip for us?

Maybe, we won't know until some rumors with pics with the new body come out. go here, apple.com/feedback
No. With faster ports coming the expresscard slot is dead, plus Apple doesn't like to support the port either.
lug around a 17" lol it should come with a crane and one of those little cars that say "OVERSIZED LOAD" on it 
expresscard ain't dead, but not enough people used it on the 15". Lots of my buddies though it was some sort of remote holder (that didn't work) or maybe a vent, or just something you stick your fingernail in when you're board.

If that were true. Apple would of released their newest Macs with USB3 support and replaced the fatter, resource wasting USB ports for the more compact MicroUSB.
I highly doubt it makes sense replacing the USB ports with MicroUSB. You would need adapters for every single USB device you use. More little parts to carry around and to lose. Not a great proposition.
huh?
34 is the slot size and 2.0 is the specification, which calls for backwards compatability with older devices..sooo it will be ex34
