Why the Core-i3? Why not the Core-i7? Apple does use the best SFF CULV in their MBAs already, so why downgrade them to the weakest category of the Core-i chips?
Why move to Core-i chips when that means using an IntelHD IGP. The Nvidia 320M has been shown to be a much better option and allow for a more balanced system. IOW, a slightly faster CPU and a downgraded GPU, or add a much faster GPU. I’d like to see a CULV Core-i7 but only if they add a proper GPU, too.
In fact, I only see one Core-3 that has a TDP under 35W: Intel® Core™ i3-330UM Processor (3M cache, 1.20 GHz). And I can’t even find it on Intel’s current price list for shipping chips, yet there are 5 Core-i7s with an 18W TDP.

Go and join the Taliban and then you can vent your spleen in the company of like minded individuals.
Are you even aware of what website you are on, it's name, and what that name implies?

Why wouldnt it use:
eg: intel i5-520UM $241.00 .... http://ark.intel.com/Product.aspx?id=47554
