My Surface 2 makes a terrific netbook, but a poor tablet... because of the apps.
That depends on what your needs are. Windows 8 works great as a tablet for me. Most all of the basic stuff people use tablets for comes natively and the the interface is fast and fluid. There are already over 100,000 apps in the store, which is not bad at all for 18 months. Quality continues to improve. It's only if you have pretty specific needs or wants that it starts to fall short, in my opinion.

I understand what you are saying, I just think "poor" is not accurate. Perhaps that is the case for you, but I don't think it is for 90% of tablet buyers.
