Slipping Dates on Windows 8 Pro Tablets

November 16, 2012

It’s interesting to note how many small-format Windows 8 Pro tablets have slipped their availability dates. For example the Lenovo ThinkPad 2, a compelling unit due to it’s very small size and light  weight (1.5 pounds), has slipped twice now. Originally all articles said it would be available October 26, then their website said November 16, and today (November 16) their website just says “coming soon.”

Rumors have it that the Microsoft Surface Pro will also be delayed past January. Those articles speculated that battery life has been the issue, and that makers are scrambling to get lower power chips in place.

Maybe a full-powered Windows machine the size of an iPad is not so easy to make after all? Hopefully they’ll all pull it off.
