Seems like our Asian brethren have some shots of the new retina MacBook Pro

Can anyone tell from the logic board pic if it's got a discreet GPU? Really really wishing for that 650M. Technically they should have the space for it since they're getting rid of the optical drive.
If not, I'll be pretty sad but also: (1) will that puny Intel HD thing be able to drive 2560x1600? (2) What will they actually use to differentiate this from the next MBA?
Seems like if there's no discreet GPU, it's mostly a battery concern? I wonder if this means the worst of both worlds, having the requirements of a high res display but before a decent enough integrated GPU comes along to power it in the form of Haswell.
Hmmm...
