Define competitively priced?. If it is around the price of some of the generic Android tablets then it is likely to be let down by inferior hardware. If it is the price of an iPad or Galaxy Tab why would an average user go for an Ubuntu variant? Microsoft is effectively trying to challenge Apple in this space and many commentators see it as a high risk strategy. Regards Jon
