^MB Air has no ethernet or dvd drive so it's basically useless to a lot of people. There's also only 1 USB port. It's not worth it IMO
Apple claims it's battery technology makes the battery last mch longer than other laptop batteries - up to 1000 charges vs. about 300 charges before capacity drops to 80%. We'll see if this claim is true in a few years I guess.

The new MBA has 2 USB ports, btw...and who uses Ethernet anyway? I never do. With the MBA you can either buy the external DVD drive or use that program that let's you commandeer another computer's drive and use it.
