You don't know what is the right time to get an Apple gadget, they always releases a newer and sexier version of your machine (in a small intervals, making you feel that your previous stuff is really out of date).
Trying to predict Apple's next move is an industry unto itself. The most strategic thing to do is simply buy the gadget that's right for you based on what's available when you need the gadget.
Apple is ahead of the curve anyway, so I don't feel that older stuff is "out of date." Their pace of innovation just means that when you're ready to upgrade, there will be plenty of good choices. (And you can't really say that about PCs.) My PowerBook G4 is just as cool and powerful as it was last summer. Sure, I'm looking forward to getting a MacBook Pro; but until then, I have a great computer that's continuing to prove itself an incredible value.
