Chinese white-box vendors will start churning out Windows 8 tablets in May and the ex-factory prices for 11.6-inch units are estimated at about $300.
While it might sound relatively cheap, don’t get excited yet. The price does not include the OS license, licensing fees for patents and margins. Therefore the actual retail price will probably end up closer to the $500 mark, which isn’t all that great, but it is a bit cheaper than the current crop of Windows 8 tablets.
