The genius of multi-touch
If you have multi-joint spastik fingers you are in luck. A feature we reckon no-one will use - but it sounds cool. See how much of a dickhead you will look here. iPhone interface - I don't think so.
Remote Disc
Since an optical drive isn't fitted as standard, we decided to package the install/restore DVD's onto a USB thumb drive. An innovative feature that allows you to access the DVD or CD drive of a nearby Mac or Windows PC. Software for this feature comes on the included installation DVD ironically.
Don't fret - if OSX goes tits up you can buy the optional Firewire - (shit, don't mention firewire) USB optical drive ($99.00) to reinstall. Oh, and you can only use the drive with the MacBook Air - Not any of those other four figure Macs you've purchased before.
Next-generation wireless
In a Wi-fi hot spot? Good. You can access the net with blazing fast 802.11n wireless. Only got access to ethernet. Oh dear, you'll need the Firewire USB ethernet optional extra ($29.00).
New Accessory Bag
The MacBook Air is the perfect solution for people who need an ultra portable word processor. For the rest of you, you're ging to need an iRucksack to cart all of the required accessories to do any real work. USB Optical Drive - check, USB Ethernet port - check, Charger (Only got 5 hours of juice, remeber!) - check, external hdd (how long do you think the 80gb 4200rpm drive will last?) - check, USB hub - check...
