i'm not quite sure what you mean? you can adjust contrast by either calibrating or going into the universal access settings, but with vertical viewing angles.. you're set with that amount, which means you'd find that the colors shift earlier - which can't be tweaked in the settings.
Got a tip for us?

Ars Technica, 13" VERY detailed review, almost as thorough as Anandtech.

for those that are interested
I made a review of the new Macbook Air 2011 11" / i7 / 128.
Available here on my blog
But sorry, it's in French.
In short word for english only people : i7 on 11", not hot, very silent. Some problem with the management of fan's speed.
I made a SMC reset and an NVRAM / PRAM reset, it seems to have fixed this problem.

Too bad it's only the maxed out version, and in german too.

I haven't seen this one on the thread: http://techland.time.com/2011/07/20/new-macbook-air-review-thin-light-and-utterly-mainstream/
This is not MacBook Air-specific, but Macworld just released their updated Speedmark 7 benchmark and includes most current release Mac models.

Interestingly, the i7-equipped Airs score nearly as well (175) as the base 13" MacBook Pro equipped with an SSD (178). They also have two 13" MacBook Air i5 models, one with 128GB SSD (166) and 256GB SSD (162). I'm guessing that the latter has a Toshiba drive, so hopefully this modest difference helps quell some of the Toshiba/Samsung discussion.
