Windows 8 tablet/laptop

[webosisalive!]

Okay so I was doing work for my class and i thought, man i cant wait till windows 8. Then i got to thinking, what would be a cool name to call a tablet/laptop combo, some transformer-esque, you know the transformer tablet with the keyboard dock that makes it like a laptop. I thought 'TabTop'. I like it. The idea of the transformer tablet is so amazing but with windows 8 it would be the perfect combo, a tablet that docks into a keyboard with usb ports(plural) hdmi just everything. Tablet right now are a gimmick with no productivity value what so ever, there just big toys, and yes i had a tablet before i sold it to buy a laptop. So black friday 2013 i hope ill be waiting in line to buy my first 'TabTop'.

Haha. This could be fun.

TabTop sounds neat.

So does Laplet. haha

Though I think they'll just end up being known as slates. And the whole keyboard dock, in either desktop or laptop configuration, will just be thought of as an accessory.

... I hope to get one way before then. However, I'll note, some products like the Acer W500 has a KB dock (admittedly, not one that makes it a full blown laptop like the TF101), and whatever ASUS is planning for Win8 is undoubtly similar.
