in the 7-inch tablet space i don't see any manufacturer going with Windows 8, what would be the point? the only productivity software you can use on RT is the Office suite, but with a screen that small it would be a bigger pain than it's worth. and if you're comparing the iPad with only the new Windows 8 environment, then the iPad wins hands down because of app selection
Windows 8 will need a much larger market share and a far more robust app store before manufacturers start to target the casual user mini-tablet market
