I was in the same position last week but decided to bite the bullet and buy a MBP. I figured the longer I wait, the more indecisive I'll get, plus my current PeeCee is on it's last legs. It only works lying on it's side and even then it freezes at completely random times!
Also had to go the whole nine yards and go for the hi-res 17" screen because the guy at the store told me there were huge delays with the 15" MBPs. Only a couple more weeks before I get my hands on my first Mac (and first notebook).
The X7900 used in the iMac is not a true mobile processor (TDP of 44W). But last month many sites mentioned that Intel would be launching the T7800, a 2.6Ghz C2D in a true mobile package, on 2 September. 2 Sept has come and gone with no sign of it, but then the Sunday of a long weekend does seem a strange time for any sort of launch.
It is just vaguely possible that Apple's ties to Intel are close enough that the launch will be tomorrow....
[Edit 18Sept] Dell is now offering the 2.6GHz T7800 as an option on their M6300 laptops.
