>> Interestingly, the graphics card lies in the keyboard unit, which means you will lose some horsepower while it’s unplugged — at a likely gain to battery life.

The other article I just read on this says that the tablet unit will *lose* battery life, as well as horsepower. The power-hungry processor is in the keyboard unit... but so, apparently, is a much larger capacity battery.

Yeah, this is a great move. A discreet Nvidia GPU for added HP during gaming or graphic design and then extended battery life while running on integrated Intel graphics. It’s the same setup that many high end laptops incorporate right now, but this is the first one done in a tablet crossover.
