MacBook Predictions True-ish

www.apple.com
The new MacBook is pretty much offering what users have been asking for.

• -Backlight laser cut keys
• -Aluminum ("Brick") uni-body case design
• -Glass & LED back light screen (LED consuming 33% less power)
  
• -Glass multi gesture track pad (with no clicker...the whole thing is the clicker!)
  
• -Everything faster & lighter
  

The Apple store is still down for the count in true Apple tradition, but I am wondering three things.

• 1. What is going to be the price point for these MacBooks? And what is the base model going to sport?

• 2. With all the added power as well as power conservation built in... how does this effect battery life? Will we be seeing MacBook Air like battery life or MacBook Pro lack of life?
• 
  
• 3. Going with Aluminum has had it's issues (in models past) with Wi-Fi. The MacBook Air, I have been told, gets great reception however some of my MacBook Pro friends say that they see lower reception. In the wireless world Apple is promoting, have they remedied these with their new design?

.....this graduate 'Apple fanboy' student excitingly waits on pins and needles!
