Macbook Air in the Philippines
Apple introduces MacBook Air. When will it arrive in the Philippines? That’s the question? and how much will it cost? So I knew that there would be a new model this first quarter of 2008 but still I don’t regret buying my black macbook.
Now introducing the world’s thinnest notebook, Macbook Air. What a beauty. What a thinnovation, indeed.

Sporting a silvery finish, the MacBook Air features a 13.3-inch LED-backlit widescreen display that has a 1280 x 800 pixel resolution. The backlighting saves power and provides “instant on” response from the moment you turn it on, according to Jobs. The device has a slightly wedge-shaped profile. It weighs about 3 pounds, and sports a thickness of 0.16-0.76 inches. It’s 12.8 inches wide and 8.95 inches deep.

Based on the initial price of $1,799.00, I imagine the Philippines retail price to be in the range of 100,000 pesos and beyond. I don’t see the value of my money. If I visit the US this year, maybe I might buy the Macbook Air since it’s worth 71,960 in today’s peso-dollar exchange rate. I will update this soon for the latest pricing in Philippine pesos.
