But for me it would be a replacement for my primary PC and my tablet, replacing my ThinkPad X-series subnotebook and my firesaled HP TouchPad. (That is, it would replace everything except my media PC, which is attached to my television.) I wouldn't need much power nor built-in storage, but an 11.5" IPS screen would be nice.

And for pocketable stuff, heck, in the right circumstances, like for foreign travel, I'll still carry my N800 and bluetooth GPS transmitter!

Seems to be a nice device. But does it have a keyboard? kickstand?

Anyone own a Surface Pro? Seems like a KICKASS peace of tech.

I think I will buy one soon if nothing cooler arrive...

I realize that I prefer a GOOD laptop (in my case Lenovo X230) over some crappy Tablet.

The reasons are I can:

* pornsurf
* read/write mail
* develop apps because it has a keyboard
* watch films
* real linux OS
* Read news


With a tablet I can only:

* pornsurf
* Read news
* Watchj clips

the rest is just crap on a tablet especially because todays tablet OS:s sucks bigtime.

I'm actually interested in the Lenovo Helix.
Just need a decent pricetag and Haswell.

Oh, and dualboot OpenSUSE (or in my words "susey").
