I'd say go with the 2.0GHz Unibody MacBook, it is PLENTY fast. I have the 2.4GHz version, but I had to have the illuminated keyboard (lame I know), and we got it through a family member's discount so I figured might as well go big. I also love the size of the MacBook over the MacBook Pro.
There might be an upgrade coming pretty soon here due to the new OS Snow Leopard, but no one knows for sure when it is coming out. I'd say if you can wait a few months than do so, but if you need it now, go for it because if they do have an upgrade they will just bump the specs a little, it won't be a huge revamp or anything.
