FWIW I have an Air, a MacBook Pro laptop and an iPhone, I synch them wirelessly via MobileMe. I always have the iPhone with me and the Air perhaps 25% of the time. The MacBoo Pro is filling in, quite admirably, for a recently deceased G5 tower. When I travel on business, I take the Air and the separate disk drive.
I keep my iTunes and iPhoto libraries on the MacBook Pro, not the Air.
