From a quick glance it looks ok but there are a few features (missing, I think) which would make me (as a mac book air 11") envious:

- 1080p screen

- 1080p web cam, tilting

- large choice of colors for the anodized aluminum lid (the carbon body is a nice touch, assuming they can't find factory capacities to produce a full aluminum body at the moment ?)

- matte cormin gorilla glass (no idea if that's physically and chemically possible but cool it would be)

- alternatively, a glossy screen which does not only look like but is a capacitative touch screen (I always end up trying to use touch on the macbook air, oh my)

- some other detail which really surprises people and makes you really want to own one of those ...

- linux driver support for all components

edit: - an external blue ray player, thin and matching in style

Still I'm looking forward to hear from people how the build-quality turns out, could be a nice affordable alternative for people looking for a windows notebook!
