As we wait for Steve Jobs to take the wraps off what many expect to be a new Apple MacBook Pro, Engadget has posted a blurry photo of what appears to be that rumored laptop.

While the site does not go so far as to pronounce it the real deal, it does note that the photo shares similarities with other photos of laptop cases that leaked on to the Web over the weekend. Engadget also reports that the MacBook Pro will sport two Nvidia GPUs in possible a "hybrid SLI setup" it called "pretty wild."

Meanwhile, Boy Genius reports the existence of an $899 price point in the Apple Store system. However, MacRumors reports that price is likely for an LED Apple Cinema Display and not a low-end MacBook.

To find out if this is the real deal, tune in here Tuesday at 10 a.m. PDT for a live blog from Apple's special notebooks event at its headquarters in Cupertino, Calif. Plus, later in the day, we'll have some analysis on what Apple does announce, and CNET's laptop experts, Dan Ackerman and Michelle Thatcher, will have a First Look and hands-on video.
