Seems to be online now. Can't update mine now as I'm going to bed in a sec. FYI, it says it fixes the wake up/start up issues where the screen remains black.
dont freak-out after it restarts.. it will beep a loud noise then it will restart
Where do you guys get this news?
Mac Icon -> Software Update maybe?
Well, that's an obvious place, but I was more in-tuned to seeing it on a blog post with details of what's it in, who it affects, etc.
Apple released a graphics-related update for the new MacBook Air just as it began shipping, but even so users reported a number of issues with the new machines. Apple's internal support teams acknowledged several of the graphics issues soon after, and fixes were included in Mac OS X 10.6.5 released in mid-November.This update resolves a rare issue where MacBook Air boots or wakes to a black screen or becomes unresponsive. This update is recommended for all 11-inch and 13-inch MacBook Air (late 2010) models.
The MacBook Air EFI Update will update the EFI firmware on your notebook computer. Your computer's power cord must be connected and plugged into a working power source. When your MacBook Air restarts, a gray screen will appear with a status bar to indicate the progress of the update. It will take several minutes for the update to complete. Do not disturb or shut off the power on your MacBook Air during this update.
Thought mine had gone wrong. After the horrible beep (which I was expecting) it got stuck in a reboot loop, starting over about 6 times before it sorted itself.
"Do not disturb or shut off the power on your MacBook Air during this update."
What happens if I do? Will it, um, become unresponsive with a black screen?
