I was finally overwhelmed by gadget lust and asked someone to buy a 64GB with Touch cover for me in HK where I will pick it up on Thursday. I plan to use it as a "laptop lite" with entertainment options. After all flash videos work directly.

I am really not worried about the apps, almost everything I want is available already (Zinio for magazines, newspaper apps, Netflix, Kindle, Nook is coming, etc.) and within half a year we will have more than we could ever possibly need when all the new Windows 8 versions start rolling in.

The only thing I am missing is support for more video file formats, but that won't be long. And there are easy work arounds, if I really want something.
