CNET.com has a good list of all windows 8 launch devices in their main page right now

they don't list any Asus products. I understand Asus is going to announce all products with prices right before W8 launch.

What do you think about these new Clovertrail cpus? Are they at least comparable to core2duo? Or still far behind?

I was really hoping to get a pro device for around 700 bucks with a keyboard but the Clovertrail processors really worry me, since not much testing/benchmarking has been done on them. The only thing that really worries me about the RT devices in the Tegra 3. Its almost been out for a year and will probably be replaced by the next gen arm chips in a couple months.

Don't forget to add the Asus TaiChi to your Hybrids.

Dont forget the Acer Iconia W710 under the intel 13, 15, 17 section as well.

I was looking at the Lenova thinkpad 2 but am concerned about the Atom chip...any thoughts? Also,are all pro tablets coming with the stylus that was something I loved about the Surface Pro...

Hey Beck Bear... Im in the same boat. I'm definitely leaning towards a device that uses the full Win 8. Love the kickstand and touch cover and HD screen of Surface Pro, but it also weighs 2 lbs compared to the Thinpad Tablet 2 at 1.3 lbs (Which is even lighter than Surface RT).

Also have my eyes on the Samsung ATIV which provides full Win experience, 11" HD screen, and weighs slightly less than Surface Pro.

Decisions, Decisions...

check out NewEgg for a bunch of the pre-order tablets (non MS) - Win RT and Win 8 (Atom and Core i3/i5).
