Is there any word if the initial release of the 250gb modle has the upgrade to the 1gb memory or is it still running 512mb and a second version of the 250gb will release shortly after with the 1gb memory spec?
Current shipping models do have 512 Mb. The 1 Gb RAM models should be out after March this year, this should apply to all models including the 250 Gb one.
