From a previous thread, we were discussing the planned lack of features of the 15" MacBook Pro. Namely:

1. No modem
2. No PC Card slot
3. No Firewire 800
4. No S-video
5. No Dual-layer drives

It looks like they took care of 3 and 5 with the 17" MacBook Pro. However, it looks more and more like we will not see a built in modem, s-video, and you can kiss the PC card slot goodbye with the new ExpressCard/34 slot.
