Right, got myself a really sweet little MacBook from seanc, now I'm hitting areas that I'm not familar with.
1) How long does it need to charge for (MacBook off) to get a full battery?
2) Is there a way to delete/move to trash selected items without using the trackpad? A substitute Delete key if you will.
3) Why didn't I get one of these little beauties before???????
4) Is there the possibility of using the keyboard for page down, or might this be app specific?
 Love this thing.

2) Command +Backspace.

For deleting I found that fn + backspace is what works on my MacBook.
Charging, even when being used takes less than two hours.
Another question : can I buy Apple Care from anywhere? I mean any country?
I'm in France, the MacBook was originally bought in the UK and I could save about £50/50€ if I could buy Apple Care from the UK Apple Store - I have a UK account.

Option + Up or Down work pretty well in Safari as well.

In Safari, Space and Shift-Space work, too.

True, I just find them less ergonomic than the one I mentioned.
