As someone who is constantly on the road, having a built in sim card for connectivity is something I'm super excited about. This could be the 2016 MBP we wanted, but switching to windows still sounds difficult.

All it shows me when I try to view models or customize is a message saying no models are available at this time.

I don't see a 5th-generation listing under Lenovo's products pages. Does anyone know what the release date will be?

Edit: closest hit I can find is a rumored launch at CES in a few weeks -- http://www.trustedreviews.com/news/leaked-new-lenovo-thinkpa...

These supposedly run Linux very well, as another option.

That will always be my issue.

Why do you find that better than tethering to a phone? The last thing I want is a separate mobile account for my laptop.
