"The thickest part of this new laptop is 17mm, its entire body is built from an aluminum alloy (weighs 1.1kg / 2.4lb), and the CPUs can be specced as high as Core i7...two-second resume from sleep, thanks to ASUS' proprietary software, a SATA III SSD, USB 3.0 connectivity, and the ability to hibernate for up to one week? The trackpad is made out of glass, while the keyboard keys are all metal."

These specs are going to put the UX21 generations ahead of the highest specced Macbook Air.

It looks promising, and they're using some nice materials, I'm curious to see what the build quality will be like.

Anyone having qualms with the sealed in battery idea? I noticed Lenovo is doing this with their new X1 system as well, but like the UX21, both systems promise 9-10+ hour battery life.

I'm wondering if this will be a viable option for someone looking for a subnotebook (not 'just' a netbook). I'm also looking at the lenovo x120, which would probably be a pretty solid machine, but this will be more slender.
what do you guys think?
