Count me in as a "yes" that all Pros will have at least some SSD storage (perhaps 32GB-64GB for OS X), and that they will make a big push for SSD-only models. They'll keep hard drive for storage, particularly at large capacities. If there is a 250GB-500GB HD-only model, my guess is that it won't carry the Pro name (i.e. it will be limited to the MacBook).
Got a tip for us?

Will the new MBP have SSD as standard?

I strongly doubt Apple wants to release a new MBP series that feels slower than the current MBAs. Therefor it's an reasonable assumption that we'll see the MBP go SSD-only and have a "MacBook Classic" (which might be the current MBP series just renamed and kept around for another year) keeping HDDs.
I'm sure there will be a SSD in the upcoming MBPs, in addition to the HDD which can be swapped out with a SSD (optional). If not in the 13", then at least in the 15" and 17".
