Suggested retail pricing will be announced closer to availability and is expected to be competitive with a comparable ARM tablet or Intel Ultrabook-class PC. OEMs will have cost and feature parity on Windows 8 and Windows RT.

What does that mean? (the bolded)

I think it means both versions of windows (8 and RT) will have the same price and features sets for different editions*

*(by different editions I mean like the Home, Professional, and Ultimate editions of Win7).

No. It means as OEMs start to make tablets based on these OS they will be priced similar with similar features.

There is only two versions of tablet OS... RT and Pro. Just as phones will have one version. Only the PCs will have so many variations.
