Have your Surface

Haven’t got mine yet, but yes they’re Magic Tables.

During the run up to the iPad launch most pundits got into a pissing match of naysaying and detracting from the device. “It’s just a bigger iPhone.”Most of which has by now been disproved.

Like BERG say, it’s a consumer ready, performant, portable version of the Microsoft Surface. If you have ever played with a Surface, you know that it’s a horribly bad and slow experience AND it has a €10k price tag attached. The iPad is a Surface that works for a very broad definition of ‘works’.

Microsoft can go back to the drawing board. Apple ate their lunch.
