    Just stopped by Apple Discussions. If I read posts correctly, seems as if there is a chip upgrade that will delay shipping of new MacBook Pro.

    Customers who have preordered will be upgraded at no charge to compensate for the shipping delay.

    Finally, the awaited 2.0GHz CPU makes into the PB! The lesser version gets the 1.83GHz too :) Great move by Apple IMO.
