I have an easy solution for you. Buy a less expensive MacBook Pro and a iPad

One thing driving my purchase this weekend was opportunity. I live 2.5 hours from the nearest Apple store or Best Buy. I will be back up tht way the weekend of April 7-8 and figure if the new ones come out by that time, I can go do a return/exchange. Best Buy actually has a 30 day return policy, not two weeks, so timing is good.You didn't want to wait for these?

The prices will be the same and they'll have better hardware. Best Buy has a two-week return policy if you decide to change your mind. The SuperDrive is only $80. I'd rather use that on the rare occasion that I need the drive and have a lighter/thinner MBP.
