Hey guys i was wondering if i should jump on this deal?

MBA 11" Ultimate for $900. Warranty until april 2012?

Or should i wait for the new ones?

What would the 11" ultimate roughly be worth when the new ones come out? i see they go for around $1100 atleast on ebay right now.

Thanks in advance guys.

Sounds like a fantastic deal. I'm assuming it's used? If it's comparable to a refurb (like new), those still sell for $1149 (I think)... A new one goes for $1400?

I'd probably buy if I came across a deal... And had some disposable income... Or even had an income lol

Yeah its used but from pictures it looks mint. perfect condition. & yes its $1150 refurb but with tax it's almost $1300.

Or wait a week or two till the new models arrive with Sandy Bridge.

That should enable you to grab the current model cheaper if not spring for the new one with updated specifications.

Yeah now that im seeing rumors that the new air should be out this week im wondering what to do.

Even the resfreshed base mba with a sb processor will probably outperform the current mba ultimate in cpu intensive tasks. Since i don't really need a 320m gpu i might just wait on the refresh since im fine with the 64 gb base ssd too.
