New 11.6" and 13" MacBook Air

Today Apple revealed their new 11.6 inch and 13 inch MacBook Air that sets to combine everything they learned from the iPad and previous generation of the Air. The new Air 13 inch air is 0.68-inches thick at its thickest, 0.11-inches at its thinnest, and weighs 2.9 pounds (2.3 for the 11.6 inch). Also upgraded in the new model is the battery life, 7 hours of surfing for the 13 inch and 5 for the smaller unit with up to 30 days on standby for both. To me the MacBook Air the best solution for someone who wants a very portable computer that doesn't want to give up complete functionality. With that said, I wish they could have worked in a backlit keyboard for both models. Also, it should be noted that the 13 inch model has a built in SD slot which is always handy. The new Air is available today and the pricing is as follows:

11.6 inch
64GB $999
