I got to play with a surface pro last night at the mall. Dear Microsoft... here you go.[^]
 
The pen with it felt kinda cheap. The machine itself felt solid and seemed very responsive. The store I was at had already given out all of their reservation cards. Guess I'll show up when they open Saturday and take my chances.

Nice. If I weren't so happy with my Surface RT, I'd be looking at a Pro. I've had my Surface since release day and have been thrilled with it the whole time.

Um... sure. Smile | :) As enthusiastic as I am about Windows Phone and Windows 8, maybe they should hire me. Laugh | :laugh:

I bought the 64GB model which, at the time, came with the touch cover (black). It's a great little keyboard. I'm not quite as fast or accurate on it as I am on a full keyboard, but it works well. I'm typing this response on it, as a matter of fact. I actually spend as much time with the keyboard detached as I do with it in place. But it's great to have when I don't want to use the on-screen keyboard.

Ah, thanks. Good to know.
 
I've been looking at the Surface Pro as a potential purchase, but am a little put off by its i5 CPU.

The better battery life of the RT is a selling point for me. I figured I'd buy the RT to test my apps with and pick up a Pro at some point, but when I'm on the go the RT does everything I need, so I'll spend less and buy a nice desktop machine.
Heck, with the remote desktop app, I can sit in my living room and run desktop apps on my laptop which is in another room. I've done that more than once. Smile | :)
