What is the power consumption like on an x86 tablet vs. an ARM tablet? Seems like running Android, x86 would still be much less efficient than an ARM core.

I'm a huge fan of Super Note on the Asus transformer. It works great to capture handwriting notes or typed notes if you have the keyboard dock.

Mint 12 RC as actually already been released. They recently took it down to reduce server load.
