That page refers to current Macbook models I am under the assumption these new batteries are in soon to be released Macbooks. In any event I read this in the warranty disclaimer and have a HUGE problem with it.
Replacement of a battery which has been consumed via normal use is not covered under warranty.So there is no way to run that battery into the ground via trying to reach the 1000 charge limit within the first year and have them replace it for FREE. They are basically stating normal usage resulting in a drained battery doesn't constitute a warranty replacement.
Unless I am reading that wrong I would be pissed to no end if I owned a macbook and tried running it on batteries until it drained then charging and doing that 1000 times and then trying to get a replacement within a year and then they try to deny me my replacement.

The LI-Po batter is in currently available Macs. They were introduced in June.

You are reading it wrong. And therefore arguing about things you are making up and are therefore "facts not in evidence" and inadmissible. The actual facts are Apple has always had the same language on their OEM batteries and WILL replace them if they fail before, under normal use, their rated life is reached.
