No I do not. You would have to check with Intel on that.
Edit: Not sure if this is helpful, but I did find this. http://www.cpu-world.com/news_2014/2014050101_Intel_Broadwell_graphics_enhancements.html

Hi guys,
I've got an 13" mid-2009 MBP and I was actually planning to replace it with the new upgraded 13" rMBP this fall which isn't going to happen so it seems (Thx Intel).
So should I go for the updated model this fall or wait? I mean, my MBP is still good enough to somehow get make it to the next year. However, opinions are much appreciated

If you really need it, buy now and sell it when the next update arrives. Maybe the broadwell update isn't going to be what it's all hyped up to, nobody really knows.

Well, if the machine works and suits your needs, I would say hold off until the new versions with Broadwell processors arrive. However, ultimately that would be your decision on what you think is best for you. What's expected today is a minor update of Haswell processors and RAM.
I don't think that will be happening. The Retina 13" models will likely stick to the i5.
Apple Store is kind of up again!
Same specs as 'leaked' for the higher end 15" model... no price drop though...
15-inch: 2.5GHz
with Retina display
Specifications
2.5GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
Turbo Boost up to 3.7GHz
16GB 1600MHz memory
512GB PCIe-based flash storage 1
Intel Iris Pro Graphics
NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB GDDR5 memory
Built-in battery (8 hours)

It's out! 8GB RAM is now standard on 13", as is 16GB standard on 15". $100 price drop on high-end 15", and the same damn GPU.

There looks to be price drops across all models on the UK Apple Store. That coupled with the bumps in spec (particularly RAM upgrades on base models) make this a pretty sweet update for those in the market right now IMO.
At the moment I have a late 2013 13" 8gb/256gb that's a week old. Torn between swapping it for the equivalent. Or for £194 more with my discount getting the base 15" :S
I travel a lot and 13" is a nice size for airplane travel. Is the iris pro in the 15" any more capable than that in the 13"?

If you want, you could. That 200MHz isn't much of a difference in terms of processor speed, however if you bought a model that differs on the RAM as well. I would suggest you return it for a exchange.
Damnit.
Damnit. The Canadian versions just got $50 more expensive, all across the board. I sure hope that's just a glitch, or I'm going to be majorly disappointed.

W00T so excited.. was going to buy the $1499 model to get the 8gb ram but the base model has 8gb now! So happy!
I am in the same boat - the ram is the same on mine but should I make the 1 hour trip for a 200mhz increase in processor speed.
