From what I remember, Windows RT was a flop.  I don't think it did well in the market.  I think one of the reasons is that it only had the new "Metro" UI and didn't have a desktop, which was probably confusing for a lot of consumers.  This new Windows 10 for ARM that I've heard about has the regular Windows desktop and can run desktop Windows software on ARM.

Considering Windows RT didn't sell well, I'm not sure if Microsoft would want to re-use the RT name.
