Have you seen the Acer Aspire R7?!

Check it out! I think it is possibly the best convertible laptop I have seen. But the hinge scares me a little.

Ars Technica just did a write up on this.

It's certainly...interesting..looking. I'm not sure about it's Tablet mode, doesn't look an ideal solution for that.

Very cool..

And like all other Windows 8 machines, it needs Haswell.. they should be able to push over 5 hours of battery life with the new Intel chips. I am sure they will update it once Intel ships

According to the YouTube comments, no active digitizer.

So I went to best buy yesterday. I was walking by the laptops! And I saw it! Only got to play with it for a little bit since they were closing. But my first impressions of this device are good! The hinge didn't feel cheep at all. Very sturdy. Not a big fan of Acer hardware usually. But dang I think they did something right. Have any of you seen it yet? If so what do you think?
