NVIDIA first with working Windows RT drivers?

FUD Zilla heard rumors that NVIDIA is in best shape with the development of drivers for Microsoft's Windows RT (aka Windows on ARM). The site heard NVIDIA will be ready for the Windows RT launch (probably in October 2012), while the competition might actually be late (or just in time).
Nvidia is working on these drivers for a long time, and this is one of the reasons why Rene Haas, the top guy in Nvidia’s notebook division, got the responsibility of dealing with Windows for ARM, RT drivers for Nvidia products.

Qualcomm and Texas Instruments, two Nvidia’s main competitors in the ARM market, don’t have the sort of experience that Nvidia has with years of marking Windows drivers for its graphics chips, and this might turn out to be a slight problem.
