    My sources indicate that an X700 will be available in a higher end M70 configuration in the future (no direct confirmation though). Here are more pictures of the M70.

    but if u look at carefully at their physical dimensions, u will see M70 is a lot thicker. and the weight is not the same!!!! batterylife for M70 is upto 3hr, while M40 is only upto 2.7hr.... which i highly doubt about it.

    Do laptops have a battery life standard like digital cameras do? I'm referring to the CIPA standard which gives a standard bar for judging the battery life of cameras.
