Pricey??? The W510 is $499 at the Microsoft store! Standard price, not a discount. It would be like calling the iPad pricey at $800 without mentioning the memory configuration. I expected a bit more research from PC World.

Oh, and I love my W510, btw. Works great and an awesome buy over the iPad. The performance is actually really good for the right use cases. Surfing the web, watching Netflix and hulu, working Microsoft Office can all be done easily, and you get the real web (not mobile), everything on hulu (not just what's in the app), and the real Office. Try doing any of that with an iPad. ;)

Pricey??? .

You beat me to the puch and well said. We have a couple of the W510, one of them we got during cyber monday for $399. There is absolutely nothing that my wife and HS daughter does on their notebooks that they do not do now on these tables and more. Plus no lag for an atom was major surprise.

With the current atom giving such a performance, looks like large screen android tablets and ipads will face real competition with the next gen atom soc's.
