Updated MacBook Pros almost definitely in the works

This morning, MacRumors are reporting that they have hard evidence that updated Apple MacBook Pros are in the works.

A bit of background info - the current MacBook Pros are given the system identifier code MacBookPro3,1. However, an application called MiniBatteryLogger has revealed an entry for a new model - MacBookPro4,1.

The code MacBookPro4,1 has also been included in the latest development seeds of the imminent Mac OS X 10.5.2. Because of this, we can assume that updated 'Pros are coming soon, as 10.5.2 will be supported.

We may see such updates as a multi-touch trackpad and Intel's new Penryn mobile processor, but Apple, as usual, will keep all the details under wraps until they feel like unveiling the new product.

Head over to MacRumors to get the full details.
