My 2012 HD 8.9 gave me a (failure to boot) scare a couple weeks back so I'm keeping an eye on the 8in Asus ZenPad and the low-end WinTabs.

I might consider the upcoming 8in Fire but the price had better be low to get me to stick with Android instead of a full and robust OS.

(On the other hand, the FireTV line is getting very interesting and if they add Alexa--and home automation--it would be compelling, despite Android's failings.)
