Apple pulled the trigger on updating the its MacBook and MacBook Pro notebook lines today, boosting the internal specs substantially on the high end: A 2.6 GHz processor with 6MB of shared L2 cache; up to 4GB of RAM and up to a 300GB hard drive. As had also been rumored, the Multi-touch trackpad, first seen on the MacBook Air is now standard on the MacBook Pro. Oddly the Apple remote control is no longer a standard feature but something you have to buy separately. No idea why the change.
Still no iPhone SDK.
