With OS X Mavericks to give the 13-inch MacBook Air up to 12 hours of battery life and the 11-inch MacBook Air up to 9 hours of battery life. iTunes movie playback times increase to 12 hours on the 13-inch notebook and 9 hours on the 11-inch notebook, adding up to two hours of playback time to the updated MacBook Air

"Apple has reduced prices across the line by up to $100 "
Are you kidding? The prices are still the same in Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today in the USA, the prices have been reduced by $100 for the whole Macbook Air product line. The 11' 4GB RAM 128 GB SSD configuration costs $899.
Today in France, the prices have been reduced by 100 euros for the whole Macbook Air product line.

It seems that only in Canada the prices of the Macbooks Air haven't changed. Poor Canadian consumers... You have been .....ed!!!!
