My wife has one, and yeah, it's a pretty sweet design. When they first rolled it out though, the wireless CD-ROM functionality (where you could connect wirelessly to another computer and use its drive as though it was local) was incredibly buggy to the point of being useless, and it seems to have an extremely weak airport card. I've got one of the 13 inch macbooks from about four years ago, and it picks up far more wireless signals than her macbook air. Sounds like they've got those things fixed on the newer models, but it was an instance where the functionality was not nearly as slick as the design.
