As we inch closer to the public release of Windows 8/Wind0ws RT we are getting many interesting news and rumors from various manufacturers about their Windows 8 plans.

Recently we reported about Dell,Samsung and Lenovo will join the race for Windows RT based tablets along with Asus and the Surface Tablet(Windows RT based) at the Windows 8 launch.But there are some companies still having some difficulties preparing their ARM based tablets which would run Windows RT( a tailored version of Windows 8 for ARM based processors).

As reported earlier by Slashgear,Toshiba has opted out of the Windows RT based tablets for launch,due to delay in getting components for device in order to make the devices available for the mega launch.It is to be noted that they were working on a ARM based tablet with a Texas Instruments OMAP processor for a while now.

So instead Toshiba will concentrate on the Windows 8 based tablet for the launch.Windows 8 Public Release is scheduled for October 26th,where we will also see the release of tablets and other Windows 8/RT based devices from manufacturers like Dell,Asus,Acer,Samsung and the Surface Tablet(Windows RT) at launch.
