I bought the Air as I had a bit of a deadline for getting a new machine and could not wait for the 14 or 16 inch models to be released.
The Air is silent, it's powerful enough for fairly serious dev workloads, it has a battery that lasts longer than I've ever seen before and it can run multiple displays if you get a compatible displaylink dock.
If you like it, there's little reason not to get one AFAICT. Make sure to grab the 16GB of RAM though!
