How long should it take for us to see the replacement part numbers, to get a clue about if the hinges are new?
If the # stays the same, that's a disappointment.
But if the part # changes, then if the hinges are still being sold in package that includes the long narrow grey plastic antenna cover that fills the space between the 2 hinge covers.... well, if the distance between those hinge covers has shrunk any, then that middle plastic piece would be smaller, too, necessitating a new replacement parts SKU. But the hinges in that set of parts could be unchanged.
Hopefully the teardown will address this question.
Otherwise, overall everything sounds good! And pretty close to what I expected for the 13".
I can live without the backlit keys I guess, but no slot for a cable lock... aggggh.
