Something new has come up at the Microsoft Store, and it might catch
the interest of people who are in the market for a new tablet. The ASUS
VivoTab Note 8, which have been talked about with interest, is now
available in the Microsoft Store.
The ASUS VivoTab Note 8 runs on Windows 8.1, and the product description says that the tablet will bring the operating system to life. Big promise?
With a tag price of $329, what’s to convince consumers to buy the ASUS VivoTab Note 8?
Here are a few things that might work for you.
Compared to other tablets in the same range – especially with how Microsoft has slashed prices on select tablets, the price of the ASUS VivoTab Note 8 is a little steep, but if you absolutely rely on Microsoft Office, this offer might actually be a good one.
There’s the good news, but here’s some bad news if you’re impatient: from the looks of it, the offer has attracted a lot of attention, and as of this writing, the Store is currently out of stock! Patience is a virtue?
