Kupa UltraNote Windows 8 tablet

The tablet market should be booming with  next generation tablets that are leaner, meaner and less expensive. Unfortunately, consumers seem to be waiting for the next big hit. But there are signs of progress. The Kupa UltraNote Windows 8 Tablet - its the "Transformer" of the tablet market. Due out at the end of October, this unknown tablet outshines its competitors in features. Sporting a 10.1-inch 1920 x 1200 IPS display, comes with digitizer pen input with 1024 levels of pressure sensitivity, comes with 4GB of RAM - expandable up to 8GB, and you can add 64GB or 128GB of SSD storage. It even has a seven-hour battery life and allows a user-swappable battery that Kupa says will be inexpensive to replace. Through in a SIM slot for good measure in case you want to use it as a phone (the addition of a phone accessory). Now pile on an HDMI-slot, NFC, RFID, Bluetooth 4.0  two USB 3.0 slots, and HDMI out (and there's more). This tablet has my attention. No pricing has been announce so I will keep my ears open.
