I'll bet a beer that they release one with Windows 10 (or within 3 months of its release). Microsoft has to do something or they are going to lose the phone market. I think Windows 8.1 with bing is Microsoft's test market for getting their OS to work on lower end hardware. Windows 8.1 is lighter than Windows 7 and I feel like Windows 10 will be even lighter.
It's possible but I find it unlikely given them losing market share so rapidly and that they have been backing away from the mobile market rather than investing in it. It feels like they gave up already. RT was a flop and RT was the key to getting everything to work. RT did so poorly that people actually thought that they had pulled the product from market.

I know I thought it was dead until I heard people talking about it on a podcast (Windows Weekly)

Is RT still available for anything after Windows 8?

I don't understand your question?
RT was an ARM only platform - MS hasn't give any information yet on windows 10 and ARM.

My question was did RT continue to exist after Windows 8. They made the RT version of 8, but I don't remember them making one for 8.1. Hence it being semi-retired as they didn't keep making it. Maybe they did, but I think that it was dropped and they just half-heartedly continued to support the older version.

Looks like they continue to maintain it.

So they did. I had not seen any talk or mention of it anywhere.
