quote dari engadget.com:
Apple just announced the .16-inch thin MacBook Air -- a laptop so thinit fits in a manila envelope. The new machine features a full-sizekeyboard and LED-backlit 13.3-inch display with built-in iSight, andthe new larger trackpad supports multi-touch gestures. Just like theiPhone, you'll be able to pan around, pinch to zoom, and rotate withtwo fingers, and move windows with a flick. Apple got the size down byusing the same 1.8-inch 80GB drive that's in the iPod classic, butyou'll be able to order a 64GB SSD as an option. The Air eschewsoptical media, but there's a separate external you can snag for $99 andApple's also announced a feature called Remote Disk that'll let the Airget data off the optical drive in any PC or Mac running the Remote Disksoftware. Pricing starts at $1799, and the Air will be shipping in twoweeks.

mula2 aku ingat 'Apple Tablet PC'....ermmm...'Macbook Air'...
Apple Tablet PC is real, says AsusCrave hangs with people in high places -- that's how we get exclusivesand free food. A few weeks ago we were having a civilised dinner withour friends at Asus and angling for cool stories when we were told in avery hushed manner: "Asus is helping Apple build a Tablet PC."
We'retempted to ignore all Apple rumours because there's just so many ofthem, but this rings true because Asus is Apple's contractmanufacturer. It's one of the companies responsible for building theiBooks, PowerBooks and MacBooks of this world, so when their guys tell us they're building an Apple Tablet, we believe them.
We checked back with our source at Asus on a different day and theyconfirmed that the Apple Tablet will not be based on existing Asusdesigns such as the R1. It will come from a completely new blueprint,possibly based on the patent Apple filed back in May 2005. We're guessing it'll be based on Intel Core architecture, a tweaked version of Leopard, and have all the multi-touch, CoverFlow goodness we've seen in the iPhone and iPod touch.
So, can Apple turn the Tablet PC into a success when previous attempts have failed?The short answer is 'yes'. Any company that can make a mobile phonewith no buttons, no picture messaging, slow Web access and no videocapture into the most desirable phone on the planet can easily maketablets popular.
Sadly, we've no word on when we can expect the Apple Tablet PC,nor what the final specs will be, but you can bet your bottom dollarit's being built as you read this. Mac fanboys rejoice. -Rory Reid
