Actually when I see that side by side to me the TZ looks silly.
That's what I was saying it seems silly to go for the TZ as the MBA looks better on paper but in real life, if I was after a super portable laptop, I like the size of the TZ better.

Video editing isn't hugely intensive and the processors are still Core 2 Duo. People have done editing for years on less. It won't replace a desktop system for editing but you can still edit on location. It's not about how well it does it just that it can do it and the MBA cannot.
Doing something badly is still better than not being able to do it at all.

That's great if they do consider it but I think the MBA hype will be short-lived:
Ok it's 1.2GHz, which is slower but it's also smaller, lighter, has more connectivity and is cheaper. Look at the price with SSD. That makes the SSD MBA look terrible.
