Questions for MacBook Air 1.8 Ghz with 64 Gb SSD hard drives

I have been really impressed with the new MacBook Air. I particularly like the screen size, backlit keyboard and enlarged gesture trackpad. Best of all, I think the Solid State Hard Drive is incredibly practical, fast and a step in the right direction. So it is getting some real serious consideration, especially as the MBP refresh was so disappointing.



Here are my questions:



1. Do any of you use it as a primary computer, if so are the disadvantages everyone talks about such a big issue? I figure that with the keyboard and screen being as large as they are, everyday usage shouldn't be a problem, right?



2. If any of you have Office 2008 on your MBAs, how is it? Does it work okay?



3. How is the DVD drive, does it work okay with the computer?



4. Now that you've lived with it for a while, what do you feel about it. Are you pleased with your purchase?



5. If you get the non-SSD 80 Gb version, would it be possible to retrofit a 128 GB SSD when it becomes available?



Thanks so much in anticipation of answers to these questions. However, you respond, i'm looking forward to proper feedback from people who actually own these machines.
