It is very very thin, light and easy to carry in my backpack so that I can take it to school everyday without any burden on my shoulders.

The keyboard is a pleasure to type on and it's more comfortable than all the desktop keyboards I've used.

The only snag I found is the trackpad sometimes doesn't recognize a touch.

The MBA 11" weighs 2.38 pounds (while the MBA 13" weighs 2.96 pounds and an iPad 2 weighs 1.35 pounds I actually sometimes hold the MBA like an iPad while reading in bed because it's so light).
