I'm hoping for a Blu-ray drive for the Mac Mini (wishful thinking I'm sure). I'm holding off on buying a Blu-ray player until I hear what Apple is planning.
What would be the point of SuperDrive on the cheaper model? The point of it BEING cheaper is that it doesn't have SuperDrive! I think what you mean is you want a price drop.
No, I meant what I said. A price drop wont add better graphics or a faster HDD.
The pricier mini also comes with a larger HDD and a faster CPU standard. Although the HDD is upgradeable in the cheaper model, the CPU is not.
A new desktop computer without a proper DVD+/-RW DL drive at the current lower price point is a bit much to take. I'm not too keen on paying the Apple RAM tax either.

I'd settle for non-integrated graphics, a 7200rpm HDD and Super Drive standard on the cheaper model.
