I carry one of those, currently running " KDE Neon ", all features I 
could tell in place (wireless, suspend-to-RAM, hibernation, "WoL"...) 
out-of-the-box really.

Specifically: http://www.clevo.com.tw/clevo_prodetail.asp?id=976&lang=en 
(that's little more than 10.1' tablet)

Go over " BuyMore " stores on the backstreets of Akiba. If lucky, you 
may check one over the shelf re-branded " Mouser ", " Iiyama " (known 
for displays). You can expect very good quality/cost ratio. Linux ready. 
The only thing I use software-wise.

Only drawback of Clevos. Any upgrade is a pain to dismantle the hardware.

I give you my very best advice. フェルナンド
