Wait, is the RAM in a 2010 13" MBA upgradeable or not?

I just got the base 2010 MBA and am a little confused. I thought the RAM was not upgradeable, but when I re-read the specs at both the Apple Refurb site as well as Best Buy's site, it says a max of 4GB for this model. How is that possible? Do you have to take it to an Apple Store and have a Genius do it?

Memory 2GB of 1066MHz DDR3 SDRAM onboard (4GB maximum)

2GB DDR3 SDRAM
For multitasking power, expandable to 4GB.

you can buy it with either 2GB or 4GB, it is not expandable.

you have to order it with said Ram ... you cannot upgrade yourself later

That's exactly what I thought as well. If so, why do both sites list this specific model with those details?

Who knows. Who cares. The memory is soldered in, it can't be upgraded.
