So I'm looking at getting a thinkpad at around the $800 range-looking at this currently http://shop.lenovo.com/barnesnoblegold/us/en/laptops/thinkpad/t-series/t430s/?sb=:00000025:0000375B: and wanted to get your guys' opinion on it. Gonna be used for work/remote desktop and watching movies.

So has anyone heard anything on the T440s release date? My laptop's gonna kick it any day and I'd rather not go without for another 3-4 months while Lenovo gets their poo poo together.

Alternately, any other recommendations in the $750-800 range that'll be durable and aren't ASUS?

Ok, so I've been waiting for the T440 patiently, but my current laptop just kicked the bucket all the way, so I'm in a :supaburn: situation here. Give me a $800-900 laptop that's preferrably haswell and is well-built. Or should I just bite the bullet and get the T430?

Edit: office use, prefer 15.6 but will take 14, need a good/hi-rez screen and ability to run netflix+remote desktop.
