I have been using a 13" 2010 Pro until this week when my Air arrived.
I commute by motorbike, so the lighter the better.
I always used my iPad, but the Air will probably be getting more of a look in now.
I have a Zagg Solo keyboard for my iPad.
It is fine for email and writing, but I find that I need a full-size set of keys for any serious work.
Having to reach up to select text on the screen just doesn't feel right.
Steve Jobs was correct when he rejected the idea of a touch screen iMac - it just feels clumsy.
Situations where I prefer an iPad:
Web browsing.
Email, messaging, Facebook.
Writing notes and blog posts.
Watching streamed video around the house.
Casual gaming.
Some creative work such as sketching.
Situations where I prefer a laptop (or have no choice.)
Longer writing sessions.
MS Office (always been awful, but so many of my clients still use it.)
Work!
Anything that requires the use of multiple windows. I am a translator, and I need my source and target text open constantly. The iPad just doesn't do that.
Are you planning on getting an 11 or 13"?
13" screen size is sufficiently bigger than the iPad to give it an advantage.
