Trying to hold out for an updated MBP 15" with the new air styling but I keep getting tempted pricing out the new 11s and 13s...

I'd hoped to put an SSD in my 2007 MBP last year or this year. But upgrading from my 160 GB HD to a 256 GB SSD would cost $500! That's far too much for a 3+ yr old laptop. That money will go into an iPad instead.
