I spoke to soon; the first demo came in this afternoon. Looks very nice; one point I'm not sure if it's a plus is that they got rid of the old 1.8" HDD slot for an even-less-standard 7mm 2.5" slot (standard is 9.5mm) which makes planning what kind of SSDs to buy for those users who get them problematic (plus there's no 256gb option direct from Lenovo showing now) but which may open up more options than the 1.8" did.
