Because the suit against Apple about the 6 bit displayas in the MacBook models also states that the Pro models have 8 bit displays. I read that somewhere else as well.
I just read my DDC data. The display is a B154PW01. Its manufacturer only lists the similar B154PW03, which it says is 6-bit (check the "Number of Colors"). I dug a little deeper using the WayBack Machine and found this old spec of the B154PW01, which also says 6-bit.

Honto desu ne. Sugoku gakkari shite iru. Or whatever. I remain hopeful for more, but we will soon know since the Stores are all down.
hehe... so desu ne... japanese is my 3rd language (after a chinese major at uni), so its very very sketchy, but i'm hopeful of improvement...
update is ok, better than rumour had it at least i think, but not enough for me to bite just yet. i might get the next one on my next trip to tokyo (fair saving on Oz apple prices), and by that time my HDV kit should be complete.

Strange, if true.

Hey, I'd love for it to be wrong (I paid money for it, after all!), but I'm afraid it's indeed true.
