Which notebook to get: MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro?

I waited for the MacBook Air, but having seen it, I have now replaced my stolen PB 12" with a base white MacBook.

It kicks! My wife has one of the first ones sold by the Woodlands Apple Store, and it had every problem, but hopefully mine has all the bugs ironed out.

The performance with the base 1Gig is great, and the keyboard and trackpad are excellent. My only complaint is reflections on the shiny screen, but you can't have everything.

Clearly the MBA is not a good development machine, you want as much screen as possible for that. I have a MBP 17" with the HD screen as my primary machine. I am very happy with it (and I've been through a lot of laptops starting way back with DOS based laptops, through all the Windows variants and with a Linux detour). MBP + VMWare is a perfect combination for me. Dual cores are really nice (have recently been doing some stuff on forgery detection in images, which I'll open source soon, and I can tie up an entire core doing image processing and not notice the difference).
