Exactly. I have a Windows tablet that came with Windows 7 installed. It failed, utterly, in two categories: operating system and battery life. Windows 7 is an utter failure on a touch device with limited resources; bulky, laggy, terrible. But I replaced it with the consumer preview of Windows 8 when it was released, and was absolutely stunned by how much better it functioned. And with the 64GB hard drive, and endless storage in the form of SD cards, I would be happy...if it weren't for the battery life. Four hours is totally unacceptable.

So, I bought an iPad 3. And I love it. But I am also fully aware of its (self imposed) limitations. But a full Windows tablet with a battery life comparable to an iPad would be spectacular.
