TheVerge reports that HP now takes pre-orders for Spectre 14 as planned, but not shipping it with 1600×900 Radiance display option.
As usual I updated the Ultrabook Knowledge Base to reflect changes in availability and screen options.
The basic model still costs $1,399 and gets you an Intel i5 CPU, 4GB of RAM and the now common 128GB SSD.

I published the Ultrabook Knowledge Base a couple days back. That article collects tech specs of most –if not all– relevant Ultrabooks available today or in the near future. This follow-up piece focuses on the HP Envy 14 Ultrabook (or HP Spectre) to give you a better overview of this specific model.
Those of you, who would rather compare different Ultrabooks, please follow the link above.
