Despite the uncontrollable salivation over the new MacBook Air ultraportable, our intrepid Macworld 08 team still managed to shoot footage of the lustworthy laptop’s first advert.

There may not be built in WiMAX or cellular broadband, but the MacBook Air is still indecently thin – just 0.76-inches at its narrowest – respectably powered, thanks to an Intel Core 2 Duo CPU in 1.6GHz or 1.8GHz flavors, and features a gesture-sensitive touchpad that borrows from the iPhone’s MultiTouch capabilities.  All in something that weighs 3lbs.

    Unbelievable coverage guys — your site was stable while the others crumbled — the feed from the floor was a good 3 to 5 minutes ahead. Great job!!

    -.- no CD drive and costs most of all the mac books? I mean it’s nice and all and I would love to get one, but for the price i’m not going to. Pointless.

    Thank you guys, after covering keynotes for two years, we learned to stay online :)

    I think its a price to pay for portability AJ, but again to some people a little extra weight wont matter much and some thinks it does.
