Thanks Toby (and Jason)
I'm going to go for the 13" Air - I like its design and having been to
the Apple Store to literally weigh them up - it's going to be far more
versatile. I need to get out of the mindset that every device I own has
to do everything!

If you are travelling or commuting I would go for the air, If you are
mainly working at a desk with occasional moving from A-B and could use
the extra power then the Macbook Pro. The prices are very similar
now, and the air isn't a slouch by any means.

Depends on your usage needs. MBP has longer battery and will cope
with 'industrial' stuff like coding video, photoshopping large
pictures and so on a lot better. If you're on the move a lot
during a day with email to do and documents to work on in
half-hours, ten minute bursts, meetings etc, I'd go for a MBA. But
you'll get around half the battery (one day's worth, max).
Not sure I would use an 11", after years of using laptops. 13" is
the sweet spot for me.
I speak as someone who has (through work) a former series 13" MBP
with SSD (lighter, better battery). That's probably the best of
all possible worlds (but would cost about 1500 from scratch). It's
about half a kilo more than an air -- but I don't need the power
charger with me!
If you have a lot of peripherals, then again a Pro has the edge
with FW.
