    I find it interesting that the 640lm is about as fast as the 520m but its only 25watt including the GPU where the older p8600 is 25w+the GPU

    The 640lm looks like a winner to me.

    Going up to 540m or 620m from 520m gives you such a small performance boost its not even worth considering, we all knew that, but now you can have the same performance with the 10w less 640lm.

    The UM models use roughly twice the power of an atom (when you calculate in the GPU and the rest of things drawing current), but delivers much more than 2x the atom performance.

    I would like to see a 1,2kg x301 with UM CPU. Or even 640LM, that would be a really nice laptop IMO.
