would seem that the models shipping w/o dGPU (which i don't need) would have space for more battery (which I do need). Ithink all review samples have had dGPU, so i don't think we know but if indeed I'd love to find out,t hanks

From a manufacturing/assembly line standpoint it's easy to understand why there's likely (99% certain) no extra battery in the base model. And the fact that MS lists the battery life for each model as the same pretty much answers this question.

Engadget had two machines, and while battery life was a bit better on the unit without the dGPU, it wasn't indicative of a larger battery. The integrated graphics uses less power.
