In those images they're showing off the back-lit keyboard. It's not a seperate model.

1) the keyboard is not backlit in that image 2)watch the video of the backlit keyboard you can clearly see the unit is silver:

The image is a press shot, its not real, most of Apple's press shots arent even real photos or are very heavily edited in photoshop. The video is real, so it looks messier. It does nothing more than to "turn off the lights" to show the keys light up, they did the same with the old ipod press shots. I wouldnt be surprised if they made a black one simply for that shot just so it would look better, usually those are just prototypes and not real working computers.
