ok so the macbook air is due to be out in 2 days ( i called a bunch of apple store and thats what they have been saying) with that apple is going to release 10.5.2 because leopard it is going to need support for the MBA. it is possible that on that same day apple will announce multi-touch gestures on the MBP and macbook trackpads. one other question for you is if apple releases the new update to the MBP will the price for the refurbished one decrease?
Got a tip for us?

Is this part of the 5.2 update or a MBP refresh with a new tracker pad to support the new gestures? I'd love gestures on my MBP SR.
I'm pretty sure Apple already said that current MB/MBP's hardware doesn't support multi-touch, irregardless of a software update.
Not sure on that one.. the old iBook's/Powerbook's were never supposed to be capable of two-fingered input but I gather that capability was included in Leopard. Wouldn't surprise me if Apple didn't release this as a software update but it equally wouldn't surprise if some aspiring young-chap brought this functionality to the current gen via a 3rd party app.
Here's to hoping!
You heard it here first folks! The first time in history an Apple store employee knows of a release before it is announced!
[Applauding]. Do you really think your average Joe at the local Apple Store is in with the big execs at Cupertino?
I couldn't care less about the Air but I'm waiting for 10.5.2 man I really want that to come out
