    I've posted a picture for you. This picture is from a conference held in Taiwan yesterday.

    As you can see in the picture of my first post, the resolution will be 1366 x 768.

    Thanks for posting a picture, Do you have any idea when it'll come out? I just wish the resolution was better -_- At least come out with a 1440x900 resolution, would be an instant buy for me if the resolution was better. Nice find was this in Taiwan?

    Sorry I thought there would be another model for GT 635M because of the blurry spec in that picture so just forget about it...
    Here's what I found on the internet
