Really? i saw great reviews at cnet, notebookcheck and engadget, the bad point was just 2 usb 3.0, and low res screen.

its the terrible build quality that always follows acer, it bends like no tomorrow

i don't want to jump the gun, but i think i may have come across an almost perfect laptop for this thread:
Asus announces 15-inch Zenbook U500VZ with Nvidia graphics and full numpad | The Verge

while it is 15inch, i wouldn't be surprised if it will share the same dimensions and weight as a lot of 14 notebooks

I saw that one, I have great expectations regarding it

and according to expetrreviews, the model with 8gb ram / 2 ssd's and the gt650 will be costing around 2000pounds / 3200usd/ 2500euro, so even more expensive than the retina macbook pro, don't know if "just" a gt650 in a small notebook is worth that much money

they don't state their source. do you know where its from?

i guess they got the information at the event where the u500 was showed to them? and if you look at the prices of the 13.3" zenbooks and the hardware they have in it, the price expertreviews mentions is no big shock actually

I see the Acer M5 availability in the OP is still not updated.

Full review of a preview unit Asus U500: Asus Zenbook U500 - an in-depth preview - Seems like a well rounded package with only one relevant flaw: Heat .. there are even signs of throtteling (dont forget, preview unit), but this would be pretty much a dealbreaker for me .. now waiting for the new Lenovo .. dualGPU or fan replacement for module bay sounds awesome
