As with any new product, especially something as innovative as the MBA, I'm a little cautious picking it up right away. I try to wait a while to see what (if any) issues surface, like those that are being discussed with now in this forum. The only thing that really concerns me is the "Flash issue", full screen video issue, and racing fans (all related, I know).
However, I'm planning on doing some traveling this summer (starting mid/end of May) and will need a laptop to take with me (and I'm obviously thinking MBA). My question to you all is whether or not I should wait ~ a month or so to see how this "Flash issue" unfolds and if Apple will address/fix it, or if I should just take the plunge now. I'm a little concerned about availability, given that I just read a thread from someone who said estimated delivery date is beginning of April (and he ordered it recently).
Thoughts? Buy now and hope whatever issue is a software one and can be resolved with a patch? Or wait a month or more to see how the issue unfolds, maybe a new hardware revision, but risk not getting an MBA before I leave?
