The keyboard in the Pro is much better. I prefer its feel to the now-spongey-feel of the older chicklet-style keyboards.
I'm in the same boat, though; just wanted an 11" Air with Retina display, and I'd be happy. The 12" is not that at all, so I finally jumped ship to the 13" Pro. Not as happy as the air in terms of portability, but it's a solid laptop (non-TB).
