I would not be at all surprised to see the new Air have a touch screen
and a keyboard and run full OS X.

i would. os x is not designed for touch.

Seems to work quite well on the iphone and ipad (iOS is a version of OS
X)

mac os x is not designed for touch and is what would be running on a
macbook, not ios.

Again, OS X works quite well on the iphone and ipad.

but that's not *mac* os x, it's ios.

And obviously Apple
knows how to adapt OS X for touch screens, since they've DONE IT
ALREADY.

yes they have and it's called ios and that's not going to run on a
macbook.
