The unit arrived finally!

Well... from the initial look, seems the same as the 2011, 2012 MBA model

First power on POST....

OS X 10.9 Mavericks (DP1) loaded instead of Mountain Lion and ready for testing.... Note that the SSD interconnect is on PCI now, as of advertised.

WIFI as of now working fine with both bandwidths 2.4ghz & 5.0ghz in 802.11n via Asus RT-N66U router.
