"AT&amp;amp;T just packed a one-two punch of holiday tablet news, announcing that it's going to serve as the exclusive US carrier for both ASUS's VivoTab RT and Samsung ATIV Smart PC, both of which were originally unveiled this summer. The ASUS offers up a quad-core processor, LTE and a 10.1-inch IPS display in a thin and light form factor. The somewhat beefy Samsung, on the other hand, has an 11.6 inch HD PLS display, 1.5GHZ processor and 64GB of storage. Not much on specifics on availability at this point, beyond the fact that both will be hitting AT&amp;amp;T's site and stores \"in time for the holidays.\"Show full PR text          AT&amp;amp;T Debuts Windows 8 Tablets Available for Holiday Shopping Season       AT&amp;amp;T* today announced a set of new tablets designed for Windows 8; giving customers the convenience of a tablet with productivity of a PC.

For as low as $10 per month, customers can connect their Windows 8 4G LTE tablets with AT&amp;amp;T's new Mobile Share plans.\"       AT&amp;amp;T customers have access to the nation's largest 4G network, covering 275 million people. AT&amp;amp;T has two 4G networks that work together for customers, LTE and HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul. That means AT&amp;amp;T customers are able to enjoy a widespread, ultra-fast and consistent 4G experience on their compatible device as they move in and out of LTE areas.** With other carriers, when you travel outside of their LTE coverage area, you may be on a much slower 3G network.
