Personally, after my experience with Android, I am completely uninterested in investing in an Android tablet. A Windows 8 tablet on the other hand with Microsoft actually in control of the software (which is what I understand they are doing) -- even if it only has a web brower, office and dropbox, I'm so there. Plus from what I understand Microsoft is making their App store free-software friendly, so maybe even emacs (smearmacs!) and latex.
