what is the different with Haswell version (pro 2)?
I'm having been waiting for pro version long time already. i'm not gonna waiting anymore. after pro2 then pro3... then that going to wait forever... 

Hi all,

i just purchased surface pro in Singapore. 
Sharing my input
1)it supports java and flash like a charm, viola, intranet etc will works.
2) Yes, it is a hot machine.  i didnt even open a lot of apps.  Maybe due to charging mode?
3) It is a powerful machine and the keyboard sticks perfectly, turn over the machine and holding the keyboard only, the tablet wont drop! good magnet there.
4) the HD screen is crispy eye candy.

important : My unit is faulty! After checking the internet it seems it is a common problem although not many.

problem : When charging, i will fell electric shock from the back.  This is important considering this machine is short on battery life and constant charging while using will be common.  I will be bringing my unit back to challenger for exchange.

cheers

ps:  when you buy, u probably should try charging it and run your hand behind the surface, if you feeling electric current vibrating, change it.

Update on 4/6/2013 at 10.30am: And we have a price! Our sources have just leaked us an update on the Surface Pro release this Friday, revealing that the 64GB and 128GB variations of the Surface Pro will retail at an estimated RM2,749 and RM3,049 respectively. That's a RM600 difference between the 64GB Surface Pro and the 64GB Surface RT bundle, which comes with a black Touch Cover.

Unlike the Surface RT, we understand that the Surface Pro will not be released in a bundle, so users who want a Touch/Type Cover will have to purchase those separately. With the Touch Cover retailing at RM379 and the Type Cover at RM409, it's safe to say that users planning on getting a Pro will be looking at prices from RM3,128 onwards (Surface Pro 64GB + Touch Cover).

Yup. Just love it

The battery life is about 4 to 6 hours, depending on how you use it. Have not tried playing games on it though.

Anyone has tried wiping the recovery partition and restore the partition using USB drive? I don't know if I'm able to "recover" the recovery partition by just using the USB drive. There is a "repartition" option in the recovery menu, but I sincerely doesn't know if that actually reverts the recovery partition or just the C:

Duno... There's an option in the selection when u use the recovery USB created by Win8...

Yes that... I knows it reinstalls Win8, but dunno if it actually reallocates the 8GB recovery partition or not. Struggling whether to remove the recovery partition or not...

sad, some1 juz arrive before mi in lyn and grab the last unit of it
