In that case, I'll have my own Glassbook Pro in a week!
This is going to be a very, very slow week...

haha i know how you feel but twice as worse. I am waiting for my the new macbook air (Nov. 5th) to ship...even slower..

As for the cutesy names, i'm glad they don't call the MBA the air book...

I transferred my wife's itunes pretty easy. I made a folder on her current PC and titles "music". I highlighted all the music and dragged them to the "music" folder. I have a 16 gig thumb drive so I had more then enough room (she only has 11 gig) and I moved the "music" folder to the thumb drive. I plugged the thumb drive into her Mac and just dragged the "music" folder into itunes and that was it. Now I did rest her Ipod (it was formatted for windows so that changed it to mac) and that was it.

AluBook

(use the british pronunciation: Al-you-book)

British would be Ah-lu-book. No one says Al-you!

Ok, let's just stick with Alubook. Whatever pronunciation. As long as the spelling's correct.
