I see a website that sell tablet without OS at all: http://www.ldlc.be/fiche/PB00117253.html (it is in French but the technical should be understandable, maybe with the help of Google translate; roughly it is a based on a atom processor and the screen is a touchscreen, in addition there is a wireless keyboard). My question is that if there is some kind of Linux that is optimized for such devices; that can reasonably be run without the keyboard (the typical usage of a tablet). As anyone experience of installing Linux to such computers?

Plasma Active might be of interest to you. Gnome 3 and Unity were created also with tablets in mind - I don't know how nicely they'd work on them, I know that both offer software keyboard. Ubuntu seem to patch their packages for some touchscreen magic.

@echo.unity atom processor are i386 compatible processor. Although I have not yet ordered the tablet, I assume it would not be that difficult to install a usual linux like archlinux. The main problem is to find something that run reasonably well without keyboard. Plasma active seems promising.
