As well, I don't know why the person said there is no internal HD on the Air. It has the same options as the Envy (HDD and SSD).

Also notice that the Envy comes with cool options standard, such as their ready-programs (much better than HP programs), and apparently their power cord brick doubles as a Wifi access point according to Engadget. That said, even if the two versions you are comparing HAD the same specs, the extra addons would justify a $300 raise in price. However, in reality, the Envy has more to offer than the Air's basic version.
Andrew you're wrong, its 1.6ghz c2d.



But, there are tons of cool programs that come with OSX free like iLife '08 and that kind of stuff doesn't come on Windows.
