Interestingly echoes (perhaps a little more strongly) what Steve Wozniak said last week about Apple 'loosing their innovative touch'.

Should be an interesting Christmas.

"So what you're getting is something that's about the same size as the iPad, which is less expensive, has Office software, a relatively normal desktop operating system, and a keyboard."

Anyway, it's interesting to hear something like that from the gadget press. I think it remains to be seen how big of a Christmas hit it'll be (I think he kind of forgot about the fact that it's not available in stores), but still.

I have no idea where that review came from. I suspect either he's a Microsoft fanboy, or getting payed.

I have to add that premature marketing is the source of all evil Smiley

What's that supposed to even mean? Like it or hate it, I don't see how you can call Win8 a "normal desktop OS", and Windows RT is much further from it than Win8. I think this quote will mislead even more people into thinking Windows RT can run existing applications.

Sure, when people complain about crappy Apple Map no turn by turn navigation , they can say it is not too bad since WinPh8 Map is crappy  no turn by turn navigation as well.
