HP Pro Slate 8 2015 topic

Last month HP released a very nicely looking & speced 8in device (as well as a 10in device). I see on the forums the previous model has limited development work, mainly for rooting, but haven't seen much on this new model. Does anyone have one, any feedback? Does anyone know of development work going on for it?

This device really appeals to me as I want 8in, 4:3 high rez screen, prefer 32gb storage, 2gb+ memory, and I want NFC. The Nokia and Dell 8in devices are lacking NFC :( So I was hoping this device would have some development, a least for rooting and prefer some CM action.

Device Info:
16gb = K4M17UT & 32gb = K4M18UT
