the spec sheet of NV56 at lowyat.net frontpage got 630/650 as GPU , should i hold me breath?

Probably a desktop.

True about the first statement. i was so hyped for the n56 but what i've realised now and is pissing me off now is how these manufacturers now assume that customers are either desperate/stupid to shell out money on anything that has an ivy bridge processor on it. me and my friends saw the n56 in lowyat on saturday and the first thing they pointed out was the resolution is 1366x768, they couldn't believe that for the price rm3,599 that was what they were gonna get and we just simply walked away and went to the sony store, less than 10mins later they bought a sony vaio s 13.3" laptop with older specs (for less money of course). if asus just put a 1600x900 screen, they would've gotten those guys (and a lot of others) to buy, instead they want to use "ivy bridge" to sell their left over stock.

Thanks for sharing bro
Not really confident with the accuracy of the specifications though
Asus U47Vc, i3-2310M + Nvidia GT620M + 8GB RAM + 750GB HDD (5400rpm), W7HP, 6-cell battery

Asus N46, i7-3610QM + Nvidia GT650M + 8GB RAM + 750GB HDD, W7HB

Let's hope more news would come out soon

Ops, if its Ivy Bridge then the spec might just be correct
Pretty impressive this U47 considering its very light weight~

after the nonsense asus has pulled with the n56 i highly doubt the models that'll come to malaysia will have the same specs. i remember last year when the u41sv just came out, on asus malaysia site they said usb 3.0 was optional. I sent a mail to them asking them where i could get the one with usb 3.0 to which they replied that it DOESN'T COME WITH USB 3.0 AT ALL. even now if you go to the site the "optional" usb 3.0 is still there( http://my.asus.com/Notebooks/Superior_Mobi...#specifications ), so pls don't get your hopes up especially with asus

So why is it on the website if it is not available/not going to be available?    the page is for asus malaysia not singapore, if it's not going to be available in malaysia then it should not be on malaysia's site plain and simple.

Thanks for the info bro, but I'm not sure whether the unit is officially sold in Malaysia 

got any idea on pricing? i hope they don't 'fix' that

gtx660m dont know
but, previous version, it have.. like G53sx gtx560..
i just wondering lo... thats why asking..

saw vaio e-series with amd e-1800 yesterday, pink color. price around 1.4k. 1st brazos 2.0 in retail shop here i guess.

+1, Nicely put
The XPS line has been experience sort of a downfall ever since the Alienware was acquired by Dell... the mainstream XPS models were customized so that they "fit" in between Inspiron and Alienware series. In short, to avoid competition between Dell's own lines of laptops... this has resulted in compromises for XPS models, which is sad 

Thanks for sharing 
Finally a review on this unit haha

Notable additions:
A5-series (A45 and A55) replacing A3-series
K46 (i5-3317U + GT635M(?) for RM2.2k)
Transformer Pad Infinity TF700
