ULV CPU and Optimus "midrange" GPU? 14"?

Asus has the UL line, and while those are nice it seems the GPU is still a bottleneck, even with a CULV CPU. The 210/310 have only 16 (cores?) and a 64bit memory interface, and just a step up doubles everything (9600/120/220/320 have 32 cores and 128bit).

I was also really hoping to find a low power i series CPU that was capable of running videos and such on the integrated GPU so the dedicated card would only run during gaming. Essentially Im trying to find a full featured laptop that can play some games watch videos and still have excellent battery life when just taking notes or surfing the web.
 
You're not going to see many LV and ULV Core i processors right now. Intel has diverted production to the regular Core i processors, so the LV/ULV will remain limited until Q3 or so this year.
 
Ive got untill september, and I could even do without an i series CPU, but Id like to see some better GPUs used with Optimus. I dont know if there are any, or any plans for one.
