Intel Mobile Metro notebook

I've been itching to order a Dell M1330 for a few weeks now. My current laptop is on its way out, but apparently I don't *need* a laptop if I've been able to go the past month without it. Anyway, I was searching for comparisons to the M1330 (I want a thin&light/ultraportable with a discrete GPU), and I found this link to an Intel concept-design notebook.

It is damn sexy. I think I'd go for the something like this even if it meant I had to sacrifice a discrete GPU. My dream of switching from workstation+laptop to laptop can wait a few more years. After some reading on this "Mobile Metro Notebook", there are rumors that "a" manufacturer is looking to bring something similar to production. So my question is if anyone knows who that manufacturer might be, so that I can start checking them for updates directly.
 
I've never seen anything like that on the market. My guess would be 8-12 months before the tech is anywhere near cheap enough to be marketable, and maybe a few more months before it's stable enough to rely on as your main system.
