I've been playing around with the new UMBP's and although the deisgn is identical the feel of the keys is totally different. My MBA's keys feel flimsy and they wiggle under slight pressure.

Did Rev B get a diff keyboard?

What about you guys?

thanx, justing checking...
can any UMPB owners chime in?

I had a rev A. If I remember right, it feels just like my rev B.

I also have a unibody MB and older generation MBP. The unibody MB has a more stable (I guess that is how I describe it) keyboard. Each key on the unibody MB feels like it is on its own suspension, I guess that is how I describe it. The older MBP has keys that feel very plastic and cheap.

Sorry, I don't have a rev A right now to compare.

Of the three I have available, the unibody MB has the best keyboard, the rev B MBA feels ok, but a little more "flexible" than the unibody MB keyboard. The whole MBA keyboard feels like it flexes together... While the older MBP has the worst feeling keyboard, although I like the color the best :D
