    Is the resolution of the iSight on the SR MBP still VGA (640x480)?
    Most other laptops (IFL90, G1S, etc) come with a 1.3 or better now, but cant find anything on the resolution of the iSight.

    edit: the pdf on apple's site still looks like its for the x1600, but even then its still 640x480... :(
    adds to the list of things the MBP doesn't have

    yea I forgot where I read it exactly, but the MBP wasn't updated with 1.3MP. It's still the same 640x480

    honestly, not a major issue, if you are taking photos with the built in cam, the isight is still you best option as it actually comes with decent software to take and organize the photos, very very simply, even though the resolution isn't as high it is still much more user friendly i think.

    The iSight camera was more impressive than I expected it to be actually...in good brightness it takes awesome pictures.
