Windows simply requires too much in the way of resources to make for a truly portable all day (12hrs) battery life device. Unless MS can make Windows run well on iPad level HW, this will be their Achilles heel.
The argument raised by some people that "W7 runs fine on my netbook" is simply irrelevant. A "netbook based" tablet would weigh about twice as much as an iOS/Android tablet to get all day battery life. Unless you really need Windows, the penalty is simply unacceptable. I think MS is in a real bind here unless they can pull a rabbit out of the hat with WP7.
