Persuade me to get the 13" MacBook Pro!

hi!

i'm looking buy first apple computer in next few weeks unable settle on particular product. considering, , switching between settling on a;

-macbook pro 13" - £894.00 (base i5, 500gb hdd chosen)
-macbook pro 13" - £1030.80 (base i5, 128 gb ssd)
-macbook pro 15" - £1468.80 (base 2.0, 500gb 7200rpm hdd, hi-res screen)
-macbook pro 15" - £1503.60 (base 2.0, 500gb 7200rpm hdd, hi-res, anti-glare)
-macbook air 13" - waiting refresh.

i've been following these boards few weeks, every thread adds indecisiveness! pros , cons galore.

little me... i'm not video editor, don't work lot photos use computer lot! word processing, streaming video, have iphone, large(ish) music collection. said, last laptop owned toshiba satellite 10 years ago! don't want regretting decision afterwards, concerned buying complete overkill. idea of 15" screen - internals (from understand) on top requirements.

again, don't want find 13" inadequate general use few years down line, lot earlier 15" have been.

although budget isn't incredibly tight, won't going beyond £1500 under circumstance. understand 2.2 15" model has fair few advantages on it's baby brother, but, it's hell of price jump.

talk me sensible option!

thanks!
