Windows tablet

I have an Asus T100 which I really like, but I would like something bigger with a full-sized keyboard.

I think 11.6" would be the right size with a bigger keyboard and mouse trackpad. Does anything exist?

Does anything exist which has roughly the same specs, that is fan less and meets the specifications?

It's 10.8", does it have a full sized keyboard?

Not a tablet but have you considered a Macbook Air? I'm finding the iPad is getting less attention now I got an MBA. It's completely silent for most tasks, has the best trackpad around and a good keyboard to type on. Great battery and is so light that I use it everywhere.

Otherwise the Dell Venue 11 Pro above might suit.

I was very tempted with the Lenovo Yoga 13 too, but screen issues put me off.

Actually I have, I do actually have one, but as soon as you try and watch something in bed, the fan goes crazy, whereas the Asus T100 is absolutely fine. I also like the fact I can use it as a tablet when I want too.

Is there anything coming out the near future that may fill my requirements?

I did find this: http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/pc-peripherals/tablet-pc/tablet-pc/XE500T1C-A02UK but it isn't baytrail. The Asus T100 is as fast as I need.

Really? My Air is 100% silent playing netflix or youtube. Is yours a Haswell model?

Yeah, its because the duvet blocks the air vents - the fan goes mental. Anything flash or Silverlight and I notice this.

Get a tray to put it on

Its not just that. I like the fact that I can detach the keyboard and use it as a tablet when I want to.

Apparently hp have come out with something buqt I can't see it in the uk yet
