Seth Weintraub at Computer World has been hearing some interesting rumors concerning the new Macbooks repordtedly to be released sometime in September.
# The new models are thinner than current MacBook and MacBook Pros and slightly more rounded, taking design cues from the MacBook Air.
# The trackpad is glass, multi-touch and uses gestures. The screen isn�t multi-touch.
# The body is manufactured out of one piece of aluminum. Eco-friendly, yet sturdy. Manufacturing process is completely different.

He also goes on to speculate of possible changes, though although not in the rumor list, are some definitive possibilities.

# They will most likely have Intel Centrino 2 platform chips.
# 16:9 screens which come in slightly bigger sizes: 14 inch and 15. 6 inch with different resolutions, obviously.
# The Macbook Air line should get a 45nm processor (Atom?) to help with that battery life.
# I have no idea if this will be called MacBook Touch or if they will keep their current monikers
