And a delete key.

It's worse when you got a CD in because I still find myself hitting eject while I need the disc in there!
Still not gotten used to it.

The Macbook Air looks lovely but no optical drive is just insane!
and it seems a tad over priced if you ask me.

aTV still looks like a let-down. 160GB is not enough for a Lossless music library (lossy files on a home theater system makes ZERO sense) + full-res photos + videos, videos, videos.
Make it 320GB, and let me off-load my Lossless files to it - then we'll talk. Otherwise it's still very much a glorified iPod.

Yep, no "real" MacBook! I'm so happy... I like this Time Capsule thing, but not for Time Machine backup. Would be nice to use it like a wireless external HDD. ATV not that bad, but I hope I can stream 1080p HD videos to it and watch it on my TV. I hate wires...

Looks fab, but one USB, fixed battery and the price are off putting.

stupid twats! I love apple but they really are retarded sometimes.
Why the hell do they put in a non user replaceable battery? using some kind of mechanism like the mbp, doesn't take up much space!!!
also the usb thing is stupid, why recess it? SO you can only plug in the next gen of apple usb sockets n pen drives!!!
arh really annoys me when a company destroys such a good product, saying that if I needed a tiny notebook id probably buy one considering the competitive specs and price. The battery doesn't bother me as much as the general consumer as I would be confident enough about swapping around such a part.
Check out my sales  I am a mac fanboy  . I will honor Laffens gift of P990 flip free avartar, but I sold the p990  |

apple uk price - £1200
exchange currencies and theres a £285 difference of $560
how the hell can they justify this? seriously what the f**k apple! Your going to loose me as a dedicated fan unless you sort out your shocking international price differnces!

Oh, bugger! What I've feared just happened... Falling in love with the Air! I just can't stop watching the ad! Don't know how they've calculated the UK price thought. So, it seems like I will get one...
