Can anyone post a pic of it compared to the new Apple Keyboard for height measurements, if possible?

I estimate that they're about the same size from the pictures I've seen...

I think the MBA is even thinner than the new keyboard at its thickest end. This is because the thickest end of the new keyboard is roughly the same as the MBP (0.85").
 
I just showed those pics to my dad like, 30 seconds ago.

His response:

"Mmmwow, that's amazing."

Even though my mom is technologically challenged (as in can't tell a Dell from a Macbook pro), when I showed her Steve pulling the Air out of the manila envelope she was speechless lol (even though she was trying to hide it)
 
back side vs backside
macbook pro vs macbook air

sorry for the grainy pic i didn't have my camera handy so took it with the iphone

the lid on the macbook air opens like 1-2 degrees more than the macbook pro

i remeber seeing vs a macbook
and the macbook opens alot more than the air
maybe like 5-10 degrees more
 
I don't have pics or a MBA but I just got back from a social and the hostess had a new MBA sitting there. I checked it out and it was NICE! Felt very sturdy, the keyboard was excellent with the backlight, and it was light!

I can see where the MBA targets certain people, it's NOT a main computer. It's for browsing the web and email while your out on your day, on a trip, at the coffee shop, or even in your living room. Overall, after using it I can 100% see why people would purchase this. Most folks, if they could afford it would simply purchase the MBA as a portal secondary laptop...and it works very well in that role :)
