That's a truly gorgeous-looking 'book.

I disagree that it's good to add forward-thinking features - well not always.

In the case of WiMax, I'm still not totally convinced it will ever become mainstream. If loads of devices support it and a superior technology comes along, either:

1. the 'inferior' technology wins because it already has market presence; or
2. the 'better' technology will win, leaving people with netbooks/laptops like these sulking that they adopted early.

(BetaMax? MinDisc?)

Ideally, once the market gets wide-spread acceptance of a technology, THEN you add it into integrated devices. I love having everything I possibly can integrated into the same unit. (I hate having to use my Vario 3 to connect my laptop to the InterNet whilst on-the-move.)

However, I'd rather have the right integration in my laptop, when the time's right.

Meh: rant.
