BabyPC has put up their review of the 12.1” iiView A2, the MacBook Air in netbook form. Yesterday, they gave us a tour of the machine.
In addition to Windows 7 RC 1 being pre-installed, they’ve also pre-installed some popular software: RocketDock, Skype, Google Earth, Avast! Anti Virus, WinRAR, Adobe Reader and Super Internet TV (never heard this last one).
Plus points for the matte display and matte inner chassis.

It’s available in Australia and Singapore.

The black keyboard is uuuuuugly
The final models will ship with an appropriate keyboard color: white model gets white keyboard. black model gets black keyboard.
Thanks for participating!
Pre-installing Win7 RC! I’m pretty sure that’s illegal to be distributed in a commercial product.
In the video he does state they ship a Vista license with it so that you can upgrade once final Win7 released in October…
