Ehhh. Still very competitive. If they can hold that price point, they'll be fine and sell quite a bit. And you really don't need a barn burner for a processor in a tablet. Nothing you run on a tablet will tax the CPU that much, and you'd just be raising the component price by putting in more than you need.
