Only preorders. It sold out 2 weeks ago. You cant turn up and get one.

It looks slick, but so do probably all the other pads out there.

I don't understand what the hell Windows RT as OS means for the consumer. It bothers me that you don't get the real Windows 7 or 8 with it.

Also, con't you get an Ipad for the same 500 dollars? Or is ipad more expensive?


RT runs purely on apps.(like Android, iOS) Except RT actually looks UNIQUE unlike Android tablets which are a poor mans alternative to the iPad.

The windows 8 pro version is a full-featured OS, that can also have a desktop and is compatible with Windows 7 applications and stuff.

Apart from Office which runs in desktop mode normal folder saves and all. And it also includes the proper desktop Internet Explorer meaning you wont get those frustrating Sorry this device is not supported messages you get on lots of websites on Ipad or Android.
