Peter,

I think we can expect a number of new Windows-based tablet PCs (in size sim=
ilar to the iPad) once Windows 8 has been launched this fall.

These tablets will run any Windows application, including Audacity. Most of=
 the conventional Windows applications are however not suited very well for=
 touch screen operation. The free Avisoft-SASLab Lite (and Pro) software (h=
ttp://www.avisoft.com/downloads.htm) alreay provides a number of optimizati=
ons for touch screen operation.

Such Windows 8 tablets should also be able to operate BUS-powered USB audio=
 interfaces directly without additional external power supplies.

Regards,
Raimund
