That 13" Macbook Air is looking really attractive as a portable work computer. Any downsides I should be aware of?

I've been using one for months (as a dev machine) and haven't had an issue.

There's a bit of sleight of hand on their Thunderbolt Display page [1]. The first image is of a MacBook Air hooked up to one of the new displays, but when they talk about "The ultimate docking station" they show a MacBook Pro. This is because the Thunderbolt and power ports are next to one another on the MBP, but on the Air they're on different sides of the machine, which is going to make it a lot less elegant. [1] h…

That or they wanted to save time and just take one picture, which is probably their go-to picture whenever talking about "the ultimate docking station."

Still no Gigabit Ethernet adapter ?!? Even with the thunderbolt port ? Come on Apple, you can do better .... Apart from that slight pet peeve of mine, those looks like really great replacement for my now aging MacBook unibody.
