While neither cites sources, ComputerWorld and AppleInsider both claim that the next MacBook Pro upgrade will include a multi-touch trackpad.

Little else at Apple is getting as much attention lately as the Touch interface. With the experience of putting a multi-touch interface on the MacBook Air, there is nothing that indicates that Apple designers won't bring the same functionality to the MacBook Pros. In fact, one has to wonder if Apple won't enable this functionality on current MacBook Pros via a software update. 10.5.2 perhaps?—ComputerWorld

In very much the same way that iSight video cams have become commonplace on nearly all of Apple's personal computer systems, the Mac maker will reportedly scale the gesture-based input technology across its notebook lines during the course of the year.—AppleInsider

These rumors aren't exactly brimming with confidence-building detail, but it would be very Apple-like for the company to roll a successful and popular concept out across its product range.

Also, both write ups state that revised MacBook Pro models may arrive sooner rather than later, perhaps in the next several weeks.

Editor's note: It was hoped by many that fresh MBP kit would arrive at Macworld. However, problems with mobile Penryn heat sensors has limited availability of the chip from Intel.

The new Mac Pro. Now with 8-core
processing power, standard. Free shipping.
