Supplies of the current MacBook Pro line are heavily constrained and new models have appeared in Apple's internal inventory system, reports 9to5Mac.
Citing a reliable source, the site says updates to the 13 inch, 15 inch and 17 inch notebooks are planned.
This MacBook Pro refresh will not be the expected re-designed models, but will likely bring some marginally faster processors and the Bluetooth 4.0 technology that Apple started shipping in the latest MacBook Airs and the new iPhone 4S. The new internal code names for the updated MacBook Pro line are K90IA (13 inch), K91A (15 inch), and K92A (17 inch). The A in the codename signifies this next MacBook Pro refresh as being relatively minor.
'A' models usually indicate minor update... such as hardware fix (probably for Thunderbolt) or optimization. Would be very surprised to see significant feature set change (like video card or HHD size.)
So updating the current model with this one (sometime very soon) means there is no redesigned macbook pro till late 2012 ? or is it possible to have another major update in February 2012 ?????
