i have not had SURFACE hands-on experience. but i presume it will be a strong challenger to apple n android.
as articles suggest surface seems to grow on you. its unlike any platform as we know. looks like ms have taken care of quite a few issues which common people like me did'nt even noticed and considered the flaws as part/feature of the system.
i am not a very tech savvy person but i am definitely looking forward to Surface.

if you are going to compare the ipad icons with surface tablet live tiles, i think the live tiles give more information than dead icons.

> In reply to Anonymous @ 2012-10-27 13:59 from HI8m - click to readSurface RT is better. Especially Surface Pro. Better chipset (quad core vs dual core, the pro has ivy bridge i5 cpu and both have 2gb ram vs 1gb ram on ipad), better design (has a kickstand and the RT is thinner than the ipad), better connectivity (has usb 2.o on RT, 3.0 on pro), surface has expandable memory with sd cards (up to 64gb), surface has more useful apps (word, excel, powerpoint come free with the RT, pro will support all windows apps, and u can install flash on the pro so u dont have to buy apps from a store when u can find them online for free, RT supports more flash websites than ipad), a keyboard that doesnt need to be connected over bluetooth (bluetooth drains battery and can be insecure), surface arguably has the better screen (16:9 is much better for watching movies and displaying websites, and the surface screen can get brighter (more nits than ipad screen)), surface has a useful bezel (u swipe it to close apps, bring up settings, etc), surface has much better multitasking

see how providing selective information can skew results?

I preordered the Surface. Microsoft Store UK managed to take the money out of my account twice and CANCELLED my order anyway.

CORRECTING MY LAST POST
Apparently it does NOT have GPS. I definitely will not buy any device without it.
