    ugh... with the removal of FW... You could have at LEAST given us eSata. Or at the least, eSata on the MBP and kept the FW on the MB.

    bah... disappointing.

    meh, as useful as esata is, until its powered it's kinda annoying to have.

    Once its powered, then I'd expect all laptops to have it.

    I'm pretty happy with my expresscard esata.
