though sadly, I didnt buy the touch or type cover cuz I thought I wont be using it.. == now I need to spend more to buy it T~T

That's really unfortunate. The covers are really expensive on their own (RM400 each) and with that kind of price, you'd be better getting the Type Cover. For the student deal the Touch is the better deal since it's way cheaper than the Type. The thing with getting a Surface RT is that you have to think about how you're gonna be typing out those Word and Powerpoint documents and all. That's why most people bought it. For Office. I sure as hell ain't buying it for the app selection

yea.. I regretted not getting a touch cover.. now idk where to get 1 cheap one.. == the only thing I can think of is to get a keyboard and a sleeve.. lol

haha not into big business, post is risky and troublesome. therefore just to help those who are able to COD in JB.



btw, for those who own the surface RT, may i know is those facebook games playable in web browser?

Few question regarding the RT
1. How to do screenshots??
2. Any good quality video player??
3. Can it resume download apps??
4. I just install battle bears gold game but cannot open it...the game tiles is set as pending...but when i press it it show
your applications has been installed..what goes??

Windows button(on the surface with the logo there, not the one of the keyboard although never tried) + Volume Up/Down(I forgot up or down) to do screen shot.

uninstall the app
and download again

Windows+Volume Down button...just tested it...thanks!!

well...the only problem is i cant even uninstalled it..when i flick the app tile...it just write 'unpin from start'... no any other option whatsoever

Hey guys i want to ask is it worth to buy Surface RT 32gb at price RM618? my college have this promo price, still thinking to get one or not? i had an iPad oredi... just because of the price is so attractive.

besides, now surface can install 3rd party app which is not in the windows store?
just like iPad after jailbreak.

Yep can jailbreak @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2092158

after jailbreak for Surface RT is it just like the normal windows 8? we can install any .exe application?
so should i buy surface RT?

No, you can't. It will only be able to run ARM based .exe apps.

Here is a list of programs that developers have ported or recompiled to ARM:

But, will jailbreak void the warranty ?

As far as the developers are concerned, it wont void the warranty because it resets every reboots. So you have to apply the "jailbreak" every time you reboot your Surface RT.

I see, now getting excited seeing u guys having some fun on RT while waiting mine on hands .

not to create problem.

i came here to discuss.

Surface RT come with usually 32gb (cheaper yet got MicroSD expansion)
Ready stock can find the price with touch keyboard at RM 1200

whereas LENOVO YOGA 11 RT come with 64GB also pack with SD card Expansion, 2 USB.

i question is...... is it worth to go for YOGA? (looks like normal NETBOOK)

as the price is around RM 11xx

if the specs around the same, i tink it all boils down to each individual preference? design of the tablet i mean~

imo, i would go for Windows RT because u can choose to use the type/touch kb or not, and also the finishing looks more premium~

Besides the form factor, Surface RT comes with Microsoft Office while the Yoga RT does not

I've run Candy Crush successfully but a bit jerky

haha yea tht too~ thx for pointing out~
