I'm in the same boat as you--we need a lightweight tablet that can run Ubuntu 14.04.3 and ROS indigo and preferably a full-size USB port.
After doing a lot of research I think we have narrowed it down to used Microsoft Surface Pro 1 or 2 tablets or Dell's low-quality 2-in-1 Inspiron 11 3157 (that has terrific battery life and is Ubuntu-certified).
If you are willing to step up from 7-8" to 10" or 11.6", those may work for you. The Surface Pro 1 is actually fairly small. There is some word that the Dell Venue 8 Pro can run Ubuntu but I have not found the full foolproof instructions to do so.
