Macbook Air
 
Just announced: Macbook Air 13.3'' screen notebook.

As expected, it's a really, really thin Macbook. Nothing that can be a considered a competitor to the NITs.

Expensive, too (my guess was around 2000 bucks) which also means that it's not a competitor to the Asus Eee.

Yes I should've posted it in off-topic.

Thin, yes, but it still won't fit in my pocket.

Nah, this is the right place. Because most of the posts are about near-competitors or non-competitors anyway.

It's a frigging laptop! And not even a particularly innovative or even aesthetically pleasing one.

What's all the fuss'bout?

Speaking of the MBA's multi-touch trackpad, is the N8x0's LCD multitouch-capable? That would be a neat software upgrade.

I could have named the post "No Mac tablet yet, just another boring notebook". My guess is that the tablet's real competition will come from some unknown Chinese company anyway.

No user-replaceable battery, either. That I don't like so much.
