Half of you are plain ignorant, adding a function to macbook air would not target it to cheap-low end consumer electronics.
It will be however, as someone mentioned, a new “standard”.

It’s a amazing MacBook Air family of laptops.

With all due respect, the comment below is idiotic. So you’re saying, a new product that has new elements that make it better than what Apple is currently selling ‘cannabalizes’ sales – so therefore wouldn’t happen.

By that logic, Apple would never introduce a product with a faster processor, a better screen, any new features at all … since it would ‘cannabalize’ the products on the shelf.

3G subscribercardslot will most probably start as an option for build to order Macbook Pro and Macbook Air notebook computers and in the end become standard just as Airport/WiFi did.

With competitors like the new Nokia’s metal premium netbook with 12 hour batterylife and standard 3G subscribercardslot the Macbook Air will soon adopt a more energy efficient processor AND a 3G subscribercardslot too.

I doubt it, seriously. It’s a amazingly successful market, yes, but it isn’t a profitable one. Asus is complaining about how much money they are losing in the netbook market, and while consumers may like the idea of such cheap devices, it’s not good for the companies bottom line. The only way these companies have been making money is by selling them with network plans attached, which doesn’t seem like such an apple thing to do (outside of the iPhone, obviously).

Also, cheap low-end consumer electronics has never been a market that Apple has dabbled in, outside of the iPod Shuffle. It just doesn’t seem like something Apple would be targeting, as it’d just end up making OSX look cheap. They don’t want to be Microsoft and Windows here, they want to provide a better end user experience. Windows succeeds by being cheap, and I’m not bashing it, it has its place for the user that only needs cheap. That’s not the way Apple works though.

Granted, I am even still skeptical about this fabled tablet. Not til I see it in the hands of Jobs do I believe it.

Any thoughts on WHEN?

I was about to pick up a refurbished Rev B literally this week…..might this 3G option be a month from now? A Year?

I need a laptop to get me through the summer but I’d rather not spend $1500 if something substantially better is not that far off.

Pardon me if Im a little naive about apple releases.

I would be happy with the big touchpad/button and the ability to use more than 2 gigs of memory.

I say this is bunk. Apple isn’t one to have “product diversification”.

Just think back to the 90s. You had the Performa 5220, 5220CD, 5230, 5235, etc.
There were TOO many to choose from. When Jobs came back, his first order was to simplify the product line.

Introducing an Air with 3G cannibalizes both existing Macbook and Air sales.

I don’t see it happening.
