...and either one is a lot lighter than the almost 5lbs that the ultrabook+tablet would come to.
So any tablet is going to be lighter than these combo things.
...plus, if you don't need the keyboard, something like the ASUS Transformer or the XPS 10 isn't any heavier if you don't bring the keyboard with you.
And Ultrabooks are lighter than these convertible devices where the screen folds over.
Depends on which one. In general, while they're slightly
bulkier, the newer generation of them aren't any
heavier than comparable ultrabooks.
