    I have seen several posts referring to a manual allegedly available online somewhere, but I have been unable to find it. A link, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

    I have been sporadically monitoring recent laptop developments, and I am closely considering the M11x R2 with the i7 640UM as my next purchase (I will compare cost, etc. with my ideal configuration of the HP Envy 14 when it becomes available tomorrow).

    However, I have grown suspicious of Optimus (via the corresponding "issues" thread), and I am uncertain as to whether battery life will be acceptable (if the 5.5 hours I have seen mentioned a few times has been widely reported, I will probably be okay with it). However, I can't imagine the Envy 14 besting or even matching the M11x unless the CPU is down throttled as some posters have reported with previous models from HP.

    Basically, I would like to have a look at the M11x manual before purchasing to shed some light (how technologies work, etc. ) on my concerns. Thoughts from others here could prove useful as well - this forum seems very knowledgeable. Thanks.
