I think Surface Pro is still unique in market. None of the Tablet Hybrid PC can match it. I'm looking forward to the next Haswell Surface Pro. Hopefully more than 10 hours battery life  notworthy.gif

Is that possible? The price can be very high though.

Envy now. Last time I bought Surface RT and RM2000++, though I never regret.
The price is cheaper and cheaper, until turning Surface RT apparently that "cheap". =,=

Most of the latest printer should work. Other old printers, most of them will not work.
Canon listed out their printer also. Not sure where is the page already...

You can but besides USB, it also has Bluetooth so, your USB port remains available if you use Bluetooth keyboard and mouse

Bluetooth devices are freaking expensive. ==

after play around rt at harvey norman, touch cover really suck. sometime u press also no respond or touch also no respond. But type cover feeling good as laptop keyboard. FYI type cover selling at rm409.

RT no so lightweight compare those nowadays tablet like ipad mini or ipad. But its really likely to replace laptop or netbook.

You need some time to get used to it.
I'm using touch cover for 2 months ++ now. Feels fluid. biggrin.gif

may i know whether the surface RT came with the keyboard? tq

You can get Surface RT bundled with a touch cover (keyboard). It's cheaper.
For type cover, you need to buy it separately.

Surface Pro is exactly a PC, or laptop or whatever you want to call, in terms of SOFTWARE. So what about the Microsoft Office in the newly bought desktop or laptop? You got the answer.

That's why I get Surface RT even though it's expensive before that. I would like to get a normal laptop instead of Surface Pro at that price.

guys how ah... my unit when charging can feel electricity at the back... is this 100% confirm a defect? if it is then i go request replacement unit.

It is common. But if it consistently occurs, then I think you should go for request.

FB is mainly JavaScript based I think? Websites that run too much Flash and JavaScript will not work well...

For Malaysia, Xbox Music and Video are useless...
Just get third party apps like Pressplay.
Wait for VLC. It's still under development. biggrin.gif

Have you guys tried using IE in desktop mode?

My 3 months of experience tells me that Desktop IE = Metro IE (except for the UI, everything is the same).

I personally support Surface though.
It's better for Microsoft to release their own device, rather giving this "duty" to Acer, Asus... blah blah

Not really. There aren't many choices. But there is PowerDVD Ultra, and VLC is coming soon.
