Also; 15" or 17" LED? Will the 17" be too heavy for the flightbag?
2.4/2.5/2.6GHz? Is the cost too much compared to the benefit for the two latter?
250 or 300GB? Is the 300GB too slow for video editing?
The questions are many, and I'm learning new stuff on a daily basis.
Depends of course... do you need it now? If so, buy now. That's pretty simple.

17-inch is large and heavy. If you're going to carry it around a lot I'd stay away from it.
The speed in processor makes little difference I think.
If the 300GB drive is 4200RPM I'd stay away from it. I'd rather have something like a 200GB 7200RPM for what you're going to do.
