I'm not usually into these kind of things (Tablets) but it just looks so sexy. Not really down with the price so I'll wait till this Summer to see what's going to happen. Maybe I'll get it for my second year of uni.

meh, those tablets have low specs and are glitchy.
Android is still the winner IMO

The RT has a restricted OS that you can't install anything on, only apps. The Surface Pro (to be released in February) has a full installation of Windows 8 and you can have no restrictions as to what you want to install on it. The price won't be cheap, but I know I will be getting a Pro before University starts next year. I'd never get an RT, though.

Thinking about doing the same for next year but I'm kind of hoping they reduce the price by this summer as I want the Pro one too. I just really like the concept of easy-clipping keyboards.
My friend had the Asus tablet that came with a keyboard but it looked pretty ugly.

The RT looks pretty useless (in terms of other tablets) esp at $500..
The Pro looks facking amazing but its like 800$..too expensive for a toy and not good enough to sub for laptop :/
