Okay so I finally setup an HDHomeRun Prime and it is working flawlessly. The problem is that my cable company (Cox) basically has every channel as "copy once" which means that I have to use Windows Media Center to view all my channels. This is fine for my main PC and my HTPC.

The issue is my wife wants to be able to have TV on in the background when she is in the kitchen and she just has a Macbook Air. So.....I am looking for a very inexpensive Windows tablet or hybrid. I have extra Windows 8 Pro keys so I will pay the $9.99 to add media center to the device.

I am thinking the Asus Transformer, but am just starting the research process. The only requirement is that it can eventually run Windows Media Center. Literally no other main concerns. It will likely be docked or plugged in mostly :)

Any advice or suggestions?
