Why isn't anyone talking about how the hardware for their ultra tablet is literally the Surface 2? Did they get a bunch of unsold inventory or did they just have manufacturing rights to the design?



Not only that, it's cheaper: $300 for the Remix Ultratablet (64 GB) and $350 for the equivalent Surface 2 on Amazon.


Yeah and sadly ms totally screwed up with rt when they had no available porting strategy for real applications to arm. And now rt is basically on life support and the rt devices have locked down bootloaders as far as I've heard which makes them kind of an even worse investment as far as buying a device goes.


probably leftover inventory still interesting that this kind of a deal took place with m$ involved
