Just ordered the first interesting case in a while: http://www.padandquill.com/ The Little Black Book. It looked great before, but the lack of camera opening was a deal breaker. They’ve updated, so I ordered. I don’t “get” their case for MacBook Air. (BodyGuardz with Ciderz and carbon fibre)

Mac OS X 10.7.1 update: Apple Insider – http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/11/08/16/apple_releases_mac_os_x_10_7_1_with_wi_fi_improvements_audio_out_fixes.html
The update is available through Software Update and is a 17.4MB download. Apple recommends that all users running OS X Lion update to the latest version. Changes in Mac OS X 10.7.1, according to Apple, include:

Addresses an issue that may cause the system to become unresponsive when playing a video in Safari
Resolves an issue that may cause system audio to stop working when using HDMI or optical audio out
Improves the reliability of Wi-Fi connections
Resolves an issue that prevents transfer of your data, settings, and compatible applications to a new Mac running OS X Lion

The software update contains additional fixes for users running Apple’s latest MacBook Air and Mac mini hardware, released last month. For those users, the latest update:
Resolves an issue where MacBook Air may boot up when MagSafe Adapter is attached
Resolves an issue causing intermittent display flickering on MacBook Air
Resolves an issue that causes the SD card slot in Mac mini to run at reduced speed with SD and SDHC media
Interesting point: devs were not given this build prior to release, they have 10.7.2 for iCloud testing.
