NEW Windows Tablet

Wow this looks nice, loving the keyboard integrated in the cover.

The problem is, the cover is soft, so you have to use the kickstand. They really need to bring out a version with a solid keyboard like the Transformer Prime...

And what's the problem with using the kickstand?

You can't just use the thing like a laptop. For example, how often do you have a fully flat surface in a DJ booth? this thing won't even stay on a laptop stand...

quick someone put a patent on a tablet DJ stand!!

[astromech]

Yes, I know, but that thing is useless for anything other than a completely flat surface.

I guess that's why they named it that?

I get why this is a cool product. I just think they didn't think it through!

So the completely flat Ipad is absolutely fine, but the completely flat Surface isn't?

Don't get me wrong, I don't give a fuck about tablets but you fanbois sure are funny.

Its dope to hear that it has a usb port and a i-series processor & ARM. , but looks like a iPad 1st Gen with the case being used as a stand & a plastic keyboard. If its anything like MS previous hardware/software combos. Its going to be more locked down than a iPad. Look at a XBOX, only works with MS BT headseat & MS hard drive. Only time will tell, and see what this little beast of capable of. I would say to keep a close eye on GEEKBENCH to see if any performance stats pop up.
