Replace my Macbook Air with a new one should they refresh them in September. I am covered under the one-year warranty. Do you think if problems persist (core shutdown, etc) that they would perhaps grant me a trade in?

I ask this because I was under warranty for my ipod mini when it died on me and at the time I needed a replacement the ipod mini was replaced with the nano so they offered a nano to me instead. What's everyone's take on this?
 
im not exactly sure, and if im wrong someone please correct me, but as long as they still have stock of the model you have...theyll replace it with that...

if they have sold out of your model by the time the new updates roll around...then they might replace it with that...
 
Good luck! You could try...they might. Has the air software update that was put out lately help you?
 
Not one bit. Went back to stuttering and core shutdowns. In fact, I reinstalled coolbook!
 
I had an experience with a MB that I bought in August '07 and they swapped it out for the new BlackBook 2.4 Penryn 250GB, and I didn't pay the extra $300, they just considered it a straight-across trade. Totally, to my benefit...😎

Give it a shot! Keep us posted.

See this is what I mean. If they just made the damn things right in the first place they would save a fortune.
