No bigger. Glad you enjoyed them. Actually they made me max out my monthly limit on Flickr so I had to get rid of them anyway. Maybe I'll post them up on my MobileMe Gallery later.
Yes I did get the 64GB model. I haven't installed any software on it except for FaceTime from Apple's website. The available space right now is 48.25GBs.
Any chance you could re-upload the pictures?
Sure thing - Just getting ready to upload them to my MobileMe gallery right now!

I felt it was a bit small (checked one out at the Apple Store today), but could you please post a shot of it with the same webpage (full size safari window on both) on both your air and 13" MBP?
TIA
TIA
Lovely pictures and congrats on your 1.6er - I'm jealous! Looks stunning!
Any chance of some video footage of it running something heavy? I know you probably wouldn't use it for Photoshop or gaming often, but just to see what it can handle

I very regularly use a 24" Cinema Display, a 15" Macbook Pro, a 13" Macbook and my 10" iPad. To me and my eyes, I don't think this 11.6" Macbook Air is too small at all. Honestly it feels just about right. Sure it's an EXTREME ultra-portable, and I think if it were any smaller it would be too small, but for what it is and what I use it for, it really seems perfect size wise. The 16:9 aspect ratio doesn't bother me at all either. The new 16:9 aspect ratio really doesn't even seem noticeable to me.
In short, I'm really absolutely loving this thing!

Im warming more and more too it! Its just mind bending when you think about its size! To go from a 13" to that, but it has more pixels than the old air!!!
Dose everything look smaller? Im gonna sell my 13" to get one. Mind says 13" instinct/sexyness/go everywhere mentality says 11"!!!! (But I could be wrong) RRRRRR
Whats iphoto/ Aperture like on it! ?? Do the pictures look beautiful and crisp because of the higher pixel density or just too small for that kind of thing (Photo editing)? (Dose editing raw in aperture feel smooth with the 3200m and the 1.4 ULV?
Mind you I used to like viewing images on my ipad, so it cant be as much as a trade off as Im imaging!

It is definitely mind bending how they fit a screen, a keyboard, and all of the components to run Mac OS X into this thing! I think if you're on the fence, you should spring for the 11.6". It just gives that little extra level of "wow" that takes it over the edge.
Images look great on it. I run a photography blog and imported, post processed, resized and posted a blog today using nothing but this Macbook Air. It's not for serious, make or break Photoshop work, but for iPhoto, etc, it gets the job done without issue, in my opinion.
I would try to return that camera, the focus is horribly wrong. If it isn't the camera and it is you, don't do that with unboxing photos. These photos aren't the next deviantart print you know.
Why does everything that has to do with photos on this forum end up being a metaphorical "mine is bigger than yours"?
I would say it in a nicer way: it seems like either your 50mm glass or the camera has some focus problem. I totally get the bokeh part, but the sharp part is really not sharp at all.
Unless you did aim for a "dreamy, blurry" look.
Again, I'm saying it in the nicest possible way, as someone who has the exact same camera and glass..
*off to refreshing my order status on Apple Store..

Thanks for your efforts but those pictures made my head hurt and didnt really do me any good due to all the blurryness.

Ignore the picture critics! On my mbp, they look really good. Thanks for taking the time to show them.
