MacBook Airs Arrive, Unboxing Photos
The new version of the MacBook Air has arrived and one reader has posted unboxing photos to Flickr. Another forum member has also received the latest MacBook Air.
Apple revised the MacBook Air during their October 14th media event. The new model features the NVIDIA chipset and integrated graphics card. This should provide the MacBook Air with substantially better graphics performance over the first generation model.
A couple of early XBench benchmarks have been posted here and here, showing off the new 128GB SSD drive. Comparison scores can be found at Xbench. Further discussion can also be followed in our MacBook Air forum.

Wait...if those pictures are legit, you're telling me that the MBA still has a trackpad with a click button? Why would the new MBs and MBPs lose the button but the Air keep it?

Returned my Alu Macbook today and buying the new Air. Too bad it doesn't have the glass trackpad, I will miss that.

Yes, it still has a button on the trackpad. You can go look at the pictures on Apple's website.

LAME!!!! what a worthless Apple product. Why even make a big deal of this machine. Half the balls, twice the cost of a MacBook and the weight/thickness is not really that big of a difference.

Educated you must be on this gen 2 Air.
Go read some benchmarks and come back here and eat some of your own words. Better yet go benchmark it with yours, and compare your screen with it while your at it.
