Well I stopped the "waiting for the update" shuffle and took the plunge. Arriving this Friday, after 2 months of research (primarily in this forum), are the following.

15" AlBook Superdrive 1.25 MB

Waterfield Designs Medium Cargo bag (Suite Spot) in Celeste

The Mouse from Macmice.com (two button with scroll wheel - if the Logitech MX900 had OSX drivers at purchase time, it may have gotten the nod)

SMC 802.11g wireless router with USB Print server

Epson CX5400 printer/scanner

Belkin ADC to DVI cable (1/3 the price of Apple's)


My desktop G4 will serve primarly as a backup.
Looking forward to a weekend of new gear bliss. Guess I better get crackin on some more design work to justify these tool/toys

Thanks for all of your help folks. I'll keep you posted.

24 hours left. I'm going crazy. Should I've gotten anything else? I-Curve, Targus Lapdesk, Apple Bluetooth keyboard?

If I'm going to be poor anyway.... Then again with that attitude I should have sold the car for the 23" Cinema Display...
