For a full fledged laptop part (a quad core part?), yea i'd be impressed too! You really cant compare the standy time of your current ARM based tablet to Haswell.
Intel's execution speaks for itself, this is a part which isnt scheduled to launch for about a year and a half, and they have working silicon already! Heck if they really wanted to, im sure they could launch Haswell instead of IB in March next year!

That isn't quite true anymore. The validation of Sandy Bridge went on for one and a half years from tape-out in June 2009 to release in January 2011. As the nodes get smaller the required validation effort grows quickly so I assume that the "new" average period will be one and a half years from now on.

Well, one thing to be remind of is Haswell will change much...
Also one an a half year means you can only see it in 2013 as it is october now That's Intel's own plan
