Apple "Apple has seeded journalists at three of the nation's most widespread publications - The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and Newsweek - with early MacBook Air review units. The first reviews from these publications began cropping up earlier this morning. A detailed summary of each review, and some observations, follow." OSNews will review the MacBook Air too, as soon as Apple NL has review items to send out.

Yes, the battery is thin also but most seem to miss the fact that the battery isn't difficult to change, even if it isn't as easy as previous machines.

As with early iPods, we'll find that people with money will be the first to buy and use the machine and eventually, it will end up taking over the portable lines and become one size fits all.

Give Apple an impossible task and tell them that they have no chance and they usually do something impressive. That's Apple at its (not it is) best.

You missed point. This isn't about replacebility. It about workign 2:30-3:30h on battery, instead of Apple claimed 5h (of allegely normal work with wifi on).
