"It's too big, too fat, and too reliant on its power cable to be a competitive tablet, and it's too immutable to do everything a laptop needs to do. In its quest to be both, the Surface is really neither."

David Pierce, writing on The Verge.

I particularly liked this part in the article "Unless you're required by God to hate all things touched by Microsoft, ". So true unfortunately there is that bias that does get in the way of credibility when "evaluators" endeavor to provide assessment. I see this particular product as a gateway to the further evolution of the "computer" it is not the end. It will serve as a stimulant to others that will innovate and further advance the experience. If someone out there in product development is listening what i would like is a device that is able to record my voice packet the speech and send it to a recipient like an e-mail and remove the onus on me to type the data. By virtue of the joining of many technologies phones/tv/computers i suspect this will soon be coming down the pike.Interesting article.truenorth
