Why no SATA 160GB Drive Option in MacBooks?

You can now order a Mac mini with a 160G SATA drive and this is the same physical drive type found in the MacBooks and MacBook Pros. So why hasn’t Apple made this a BTO for the portables?

    The only 160gb that is too thick for the MacBook Pro’s is the Fujitsu. Western Digital’s and Seagate’s fit just fine.
    The Western Digital 160gb I put in my 12″ runs far too hot to be usable though.
