They both look the same. Heck, the specs look almost the same. So here are the minute differences between the two:

Both have DUAL SIM / standby functions. The D90 has a bigger screen, at 1.8 inches, whereas the D80 comes with a 1.5 inch screen. Both come with FM Radio functions. The D80 does not have a camera. Instead it comes with 1,000 phonebook capacity and MP4 capabilities. The D80 also comes with a USB memory dock for the microSD card.

Then again, if Apple could have convinced Intel to manufacture a really tiny chip for the MacBook Air, they should have bundled the technology to do HSDPA as well.

These two bold conclusions (literally) illustrate some of my thoughts resulting from the current “tech channel war” going on among a few of the channel bloggers over the ASUS eee versus the MacBook Air. You can actually follow the discussion thread here:

The AfterMac: An Unfair Comparison

The Gadgenista: Glam factor, really!

New Linux User: The eee as a practical choice

The MacBook Air follows the principle of the nth generation iPod nano – it’s not meant to be your first iPod. In the same way that the new iPods do not come shipped with an installer CD of iTunes, so does the MacBook Air leave the warehouse in its ultra thin state, as Apple assumes that you have the infrastructure to house your desktop data. However if Apple wanted to capitalize on their wireless connectivity capabilities, it should also have given an option for built in HSDPA (3.5G) as many laptops are starting to bundle this technology into the system.

Yes, I understand you can purchase a HUAWEI dongle to give you that extra boost, but why attach so many things to your already thin Air?
