For *those* features, I might do either or both.
But for starters I'll target the x86 version.
The pen support will make it a killer editing tablet for documents. And the timing is perfect; I was looking for an ultrabook upgrade for the fall.
Me too! My Acer is nice, but it is showing age (might have too many books on it!) If this can allow me to VPN into work (no tablets have the right Java built in), then it would definately be worth it to me. And the ability to mark up documents the way I do now - priceless!
