Windows 8 RT DOA?

Either Win 8 tablet will become irrelevant once the convertible laptop hits the shelf.

My 15 yrs old son is patiently waiting for a convertible laptop. I told him it will hit the $799 price point sometime late this year. Meanwhile he has to put up with a 6 lbs HP laptop with a Sandy Bridge CPU and a noisy fan. My older daughter is happy with her Win8 Zen book.

Neither one ever touched my wife's iPad3. They are stuck to the laptop to do schoolwork.
