Looks like the Lenovo Miix 2 10.1 tablet should be launching soon. It's already on shelves in Germany and Lenovo's US website now has it listed.
10.1 inch 1920x1200 (16:10) IPS display
Baytrail Z3740, 2GB RAM
64GB and 128GB
micro USB, micro SD, mini HDMI
1.27 pounds
At CES they say pricing would start at $499. However Lenovo's website shows the 128GB model at $699 and the 64GB model at $749. Besides the prices on the storage capacities apparently reversed, this looks like the pricing on the Miix 2 11 with Haswell processor.
This Germany reviewer picked up a 64GB Miix 2 10.1 today and his cost $380 Euros (before VAT) which translates to $520, so it seems like we should see that $499 price Lenovo mentioned at CES and the current prices are an error.

I'm really excited about this tablet hybrid. First is the 10 inch display using a 16:10 aspect ratio. I like this more than all the 16:9 displays most of the 10+ inch Windows tablets have gone with.
The keyboard design looks kinda interesting, I'll miss not having a hinge and adjustable viewing angles, but it's a simple and quick design without a bulky hinge and I'm guessing this is partly why they can sell this tablet with keyboard for only $500. Also happy that this reviewer had experience with the horrible Lenovo Lynx keyboard and indicated this doesn't have those weird issues. And the magnets seem to hold the keyboard pretty well.
I wish Lenovo has more curves on the tablet section and less corners.
Update 1/29/14: Lenovo.com has fixed their pricing error. $600 for the 64GB model, $700 for the 128GB model. The reported $500 price from CES apparently has not come to be.
