I kind of thought that at first, but if you look at this photo in particular: http://www.engadget.com/gallery/macb...ccfl-1/266121/

you can hold a straight edge across the top and bottom of the actual display area, yet the housing is definitely taller on the older MBP. Further, if you measure on screen, the width of the bezel is clearly different.

And this picture: http://www.engadget.com/gallery/macb...ccfl-1/266120/
shows that the two notebooks are in fairly close alignment. It does look like the new MBP is sitting down a bit, but I can't imagine why they would do that, so it makes it seem like the new unit is thinner.

I'm wondering if Apple just hasn't updated the specs properly yet. After all, it took them a while to even get the MacBook Pro page updated after the new unit showed up in the Store and on the front page.
