If u want to buy surface pro< get at least the 128GB version.. and instead of using external hard disk, just buy a Class 10 64GB microSDXC card to install program on it.. much more convenience than bringing external hard disk everywhere.. It does what a laptop does..

I'm using my RT mainly for surfing. Love the portability, big screen and long battery life. Don't expect to play more game on RT. if you wanna play game on tablet, get iPad or android tablet. RT design for productivity using Microsoft office apps.

You may want to get Bluetooth keyboard. There are many design and size out there. Go check it out which one suit you. There surface keyboard is pretty expensive, why u didn't bundle together when u bought your surface? I think u can get it cheaper.

The WiFi still giving me intermittent limited connectivity issue. What surprised me is that it worked after I replugged the charger after trying many other software/driver fix update: it wasn't the fact that I replug the charger, its the USB that's causing the problem. The instant I plug my flash drive onto it the WiFi stops working and the instant I remove it the WiFi worked Try with different WiFi location to see if it still give you the same problem. If yes, then better send it for check up. If not, then maybe you need to adjust or check your wireless router settings.

It might be in store soon and I'm guessing early March as mentioned before is correct.

Didn't read things about there's battery in it. or I miss something? the new keyboard has built-in battery. only useable on Surface 2 / Surface Pro 2 because of the new adapter type. QUOTE(hkboey @ Feb 16 2014, 07:48 PM) Hi sifus! I bought my RT from lazada on 3rd Feb and received it on 5th Feb. Today 16 Feb only I register the unit on Microsoft website for the warranty registration and found the warranty status as per attached. Is it normal? Or how should I ask them to ammend the correct register date? To note, the unit I received is new and seal both inside out. you may try to email to microsoft about this with attached receipt. they should be able to assist you.

Surface Pro + Power Cover = better buy Surface Pro 2? Of course, that would mean no keyboard. if not mistaken, the power cover only can be use on Surface 2 / Pro 2 due to battery connection design. direct conversion will cost around RM600+.. but i'm expecting the price will be at least RM700 for the power cover only. i suggest u get the Surface Pro 2 and invest some more for the keyboard. Surface Pro 2 run on haswell, so better battery life.

First announced to the world last September, the 10.6-inch full HD tablet is powered by the ARM-based 1.7GHz NVIDIA Tegra 4 quad-core processor and runs Windows RT 8.1. It will be available in Malaysia with two different internal storage space configurations: 32GB and 64GB. For the 32GB variant of Surface 2, Microsoft has priced it at RM 1399 while the 64GB model goes for RM 1699. These pricing are slightly lower than the launch price of the original Surface RT in Malaysia which were listed at RM 1,549 for 32GB and RM 1,899 for 64GB. Meanwhile, do note that Surface 2 does not come together with keyboard and Microsoft Malaysia is not offering any keyboard bundle package for Surface 2 as opposed to the original Surface RT. Hence, customer who plans to purchase the new Type Cover 2 or Touch Cover 2 for their new Surface 2 are able to do so for a price of is priced at RM 409 and RM 379 respectively. Customers are also able to purchase both keyboard covers for their first generation Surface RT and Surface Pro as well since both tablets do support these new keyboard covers. Additionally, Microsoft Malaysia has also announced the available of Arc Touch Mouse Surface Edition which is priced at RM 219. With the imminent arrival of the new Surface 2, Microsoft has also reduced the price for the original Surface RT and Surface Pro as well as the original Type and Touch Cover. Their new pricing are listed in our next post. Source: http://www.lowyat.net/2014/03/microsoft-su...t-from-rm-1399/

As in worth the trade off of the newer spec, longer battery life in surface pro 2? if you had extra money to throw in, you can consider the surface pro 2. otherwise, surface pro price now is really good.
