I haven't seen it live yet.
But a friend -another early adopter- has bought one ca. 2 months ago.
His feedback:
- Fan on 99% of the time.
- It still gets extremely warm around the vents. To warm to put it on your lap.
- Frequent problems with a program called "CloseLid". Asus helpdesk and some user forums did recommend to uninstall this program. Then the automatic switching to tablet mode when closing the lid didn't work anymore - no surprise after understanding the usage of "CloseLid".
- Battery ca. 3 hours!
- Touchpad not working well in the outer areas.

Again: I don't have any personal experience. But my friend's feedback has been quite devastating.
I found the concept of 2 screens (albeit only 1 touch enabled) compelling myself...
