That one data point doesn't mean it's a mistake to compare it with the MBA. It's "complete" functionality and more importantly, price after keyboard means the MBA comparison should be made. Comparisons to tablets and other hybrids should also be made.

What I find interesting is the confusion about the product's positioning in the market. I am also confused and don't think it bodes well for the customer. At the base, it's most commonly known as a tablet, but the keyboard begins to confuse things. The moment you get into the Pro territory, the price confuses things even more. Even outside of the "RT/Pro" discussion, I'm not sure if it's lack of clear (existing) product category is beneficial for MS

I have an RT with the touch cover and haven't used it yet, since I never have a table to put it on. The air doesn't need a table to use its keyboard so is much more usable for me. I use the iPad in bed since it has a better screen, I'm having trouble finding a use for the RT yet.

But I think my habits are unique, not representive of th typical consumer.
