Hi,

As far as I understand it, WindowsRT ( ARM ) will be a 'closed' OS delivered only on dedicated hardware with additional software installations being limited to MS App Store downloads. It is not Windows 8 for ARM processors - and I don't know of any effort to port Perl for this platform.

Microsoft's own tablet hardware offering- "Surface" will apparently have an x86 version running Windows 8 Pro. It will probably be a lot more expensive than the WindowsRT version and appears to be a heavier beast:

That sounds promising, but AFAIK there's no wxPerl / CitrusPerl for
Windows/ARM...
