Hey guys, I didn’t know if anyone posted or saw this yet, so I apologize if it’s old news.

Seems like the someone at world of apple found the spec page for the new macbookair. Does this seem as legit to you as it does to me?

@adam well since the asus eeepc ( which is a laptop ) h as no moving parts apple would say they made the first but in real life they would have made they second or more like third after olpc

^ Adam, you took the words out of my mouth for the AppleTV 2. I’ve been hoping for quite some time that Apple would take the same idea of the iPhone (combining all your pocket gadgets into 1) Take all your living room gadgets and make them into 1. DVR, Blu Ray player or at least a dvd player. Make it the one box you need and get rid of the rest.

Has it occurred to anyone that, if there is no optical drive, and if there is no fan, and if they can replace the hard disk with a flash disk (albeit a smaller one), then they would have a world first: a laptop with NO MOVING PARTS!

But I guess that flash memory is still too expensive. What I’d really like to see, though, is the Apple TV 2 becoming the new media hub of the home. With wireless router and Bluray DVD and DVR, plus iTunes movie rentals and all the other good stuff.

How about my idea here? I mean the Kindle killer.

Maybe it is the Kindle killer, but not with the iBook name…..
How about the “airBook” instead of the MacbookAir?
BTW, how can Adium know the new name?
MacbookAir doesn’t sound appealing anyway.

So, an airBook with WiFi, iTunes, iChat etc. a BIG iPhone.

Seems like the most unlikely products turn out to be true these days for Apple, ala the iPod “there’s no way Apple would design something so ugly” nano’s…

People like to take a stab at the tablet thing again, I see. If it does get released, people will be saying, “see, I told you so!” I guess if you predict something for every year for the past 10 years, then obviously you’ll be right eventually…

“MacBook Air”? as in, it’s light as air, or what? or wait, hey! maybe it’s got built-in wifi! oh, we already have that in every mac? damn.

kinda gay name, but i guess we should wait what it’s all about first. as to the “mac os x 10.6″ entry: naturally there’s at least one future os x version in development… but i’m surprised they’re already running adium on that.

That would explain the “There is something in the air”

Lame name if it is true.

Seems like it would be really easy to spoof that in your browser user-agent. I get people using everything from an Atari 2600 to an Apple II in my blog stats.

What about the Macworld motto or whatever you want to call it this year “There’s Something in the Air” It could be the sub-notebook everyone is talking about who knows but what I want to know is how would Adium know about it?

Looks like the rumors about Macbook Tablet is true, and with a new version of OSX?

Interesting. I see several people are using generic PCs and over 500 are still using ADP (the Developer Transition Kit, which were supposed to be returned to Apple in June 2006).

At least we are sure that there would be something in the air!
