Will a faster CPU, like 640M, ever be available on x201t

[iwantatablet]

I need x201t-sized unit to run few virtual machines on as well as double as my main machine (larger monitor at home and office). I am hoping i7 "M" type CPUs to be available on the x201t, but all I see are "LM"s. In which case, if I understand correctly, for my use, all i5-based current (not to mention the i7-based ones) and future x201 non-tablets will kick the behind of the i7-based x201t tablets. Such an amazing letdown! I REALLY want a tablet! But it is a NASTY sacrifice if I exchange an extra grand for a heavier unit with mediocre performance just to have a multi-touch. I know It seems like I want a lot, and I should be looking at T or W series, but I only have money for one good machine that I can comfortably use in the economy seat (let me tell you, for me, my recently dead dv2000 14.1" was a TIGHT fit in that situation).  

Right? Set me straight my fiends! 

THANKS!

More info:
Prices look like this:  $1500 for a decked out x201 and $2500 for a decked out x201t
I plan to upgrade my own memory (8gb) and hard drive (SSD), unless there are some caveats that I should be aware of (I am getting the baseline options for those).

Until now I have been using a DV2000 core 2 duo 5400 CPU which I think has an OK performance for my uses. Can anyone comment on performance differences of the fastest CPUs currently available for x201t and x201 compared to the c2d 5400? 

I want a tablet because I just want it. It is pretty nifty tech and I like clicking links with my fingers over using any other pointing device. I also do not want to feel like my laptop is lacking compared to others in a year and a half's time when everyone will be fingering their screens. I'd also like to doodle on the notepad, and always have TONS of paper I waste as scrap - so maybe it will help me with organization of them as well.

I have never ever had a desire to touch my screen. I don't know that in a year and a half everyone's going to be doing it. As to the 640M, I think if Lenovo were going to offer it on the X201t they would have done it already, but that's just my opinion. If your dv2000 was OK, a X201t will certainly be better and the SSD will help too.

Braddah, if it aint listed in the manual by now it aint gonna be available.

X201 tablet models will, for the most part, receive the same processors as the X201s notebooks.   the i7-640M won't be an option as it requires a larger heatsink assembly.
