Now this is the way to build a tablet...

Mine is just slow. Even with 64bit Windows and 2GB of RAM more than 3 or 4 tabs open and it's slow as hell.


Mine was aweful too. Ditched it. Got it for "around the house" use. The ipad has been 1000% better
 
How can anybody say anything about this? It isn't even available yet for the public. Until I can actually get my hands on it, I'll stick with the iPad.

Here ya go Papa, for $100 you have the hard case and keyboard (iPad)

If priced right, this could take off.

"It is likely that Microsoft's ARM-based tablet will be targeted for the high end of the market," said NPD DisplaySearch analyst Richard Shim, in a blog post.

I have this hard case and keyboard for my Ipad, but hardly use it.
 
Let's see... No mobile connection for when there's no wifi, and the screen will look like mud when it's compared to Apple's retina display. While this might be useful for some, I doubt it will make a dent in Apple's share of the market. If anything, it might take some of the Android tablets' share.
 
The iPad doesn't have non-WiFi connection either (unless you buy that version - I didn't) and I will assume that the MS one will be offered with cell capability at launch. As a tablet, I think the iPad wins, but as a tablet based Windows PC that should run all my Windows apps, it might be of interest.

How do you know -- it hasn't been released yet...? :triconfused:

Well, it's pretty tough to beat as it is and I don't see anything that was mentioned that would sway me (from a consumption standpoint), but you are correct in that I should wait until I declare the iPad the winner. Now as a creation device, it may be better.
 
I don't think anyone should consider my opinion on new products. When the Ipad first came out. I was sure it was a silly idea and I couldn't see how anyone would want one.

I was just a little bit wrong about that:)
