ArnoldRimmer said: Just as expected. Almost all reviews were mixed, pointing out several flaws . Later, news turned up about the touch covers having very bad quality (despite being extremely expensive - 120$ for a product that costs 16$ to manufacture). People are doing what almost all reviews advised: Skipping Surface RT and waiting for the only slightly more expensive, real Windows 8 tablets instead. As I said before, I expect the real Windows 8 tablets to be very successful, simply because they introduce a fascinating new form factor. Or to say it with a grain of irony: I expect Windows 8 tablets to be successful exactly because they are NOT tablets. They're notebook/tablet hybrids. |
well, the "Atom" based real w8 tablets probably are in a similar price range as the surface RT, but I expect i3/5 tablets to be quite a bit more expensive
