I've just ordered the 64GB version.
It should be here around February 21st.

I've hesitated for quite a while.
I'd prefer a Surface Pro Mini. But there's no official announcement yet and I didn't want to wait any longer.

I've seen the Toshiba Encore yesterday. Reviews are good enough, but I don't like the touch and feel.

The Lenovo Thinkpad 8 with its full HD display would be interesting. But I'm not a fan of Lenovo and quite frankly I don't care much about resolution, especially on such a small device.
I'm perfectly fine for example with the 1366 x 768 on Surface RT. So the 1200 x 800 on an 8" unit shouldn't be a problem.

The Asus VivoTab Note 8 does have a WACOM stylus, which could be helpful. But I'm not sure about the usability on an 8" unit and honestly I don't use the stylus on my Surface Pro that often. And I'm not a fan of the Asus update process.

I like my Dell Latitude 10 and hope for similar build and display quality of the Dell Venue 8 Pro.
Anyway...I use my Windows 8 tablets way more intensively than the Android tablets and for now I don't use iPads at all. So a highly mobile 8" model for the suit or coat pocket will be great...
