The MacBook Air requires a wireless accesspoint witha NAS connected for time machine.

I would love to be able to just open up my MacBook and have it do its thing overnight. No need to plug into anything. Yes there are NAS drives that can be plugged into the network, but this kills two birds with one stone. Both an 802.11n airport, and a NAS.

I think its a great idea.
