X240/ T440/ T440s - 48Wh 6-cell

Does this 48Wh battery exist, is it going to be offered? Or is it someone at Lenovo misunderstanding the internal/external combinations. One of the biggest drawbacks of the new models is that the 6-cell 72Wh battery that sticks out the bottom so much. A little ridiculous when you're using it on the go. Something that lowers the whole notebook to around the height of the X220/X230 6-cell would be ideal. I wouldn't mind carrying two of them to have a more reasonable profile.

 

I'm starting to think this is a real battery. Listed here as well:

I think this is a real battery, and will be a future option, but not yet.

 

I have the 6 cell and i don't think it is that big and I use it on the go between places
