I wanted to learn more about it, after reading about it, in this review, so, therefore, I moved on to <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQhhtvuZwVg" rel="nofollow">this</a> review. It's a little long-winded to get to the bottom line and even more surprising to hear other reviewers' take on this tablet, thus far. I, really, don't understand what Microsoft is doing...other than...crumbling, in this arena?! :-/<br /><br />Back to the written review of the various tablets, I was both surprised and disappointed by what I learned:<br /><br />1) ASUS seems to have gotten Microsoft's RT "noose" thrown on it, rather than going the Android route. MAJORLY DISAPPOINTING for a company that I have, often, been quite impressed w/their ingenuity and forward-thinking designs in both the laptop and, now, the tablet arenas.<br /><br />2) something that I found quite interesting and wondered if you were aware of, since I know that you enjoy the full Retina Resolution experience: the Nexus 10 "...is Google's first full-size tablet and the only tablet from any manufacturer that beats the screen resolution of the iPad. It boasts 2,560 by 1,600 pixels, a third more than the fourth-generation iPad." WOW!! Did you know this?!<br /><br />Lastly, what, originally, lead me to the vid review, about this particular gadget (The Microsoft Surface), in the first place, was the "functional keyboard printed on the inside." Sadly, it sounds like it's attached to a "lemon." :-(TC [Girl]https://www.blogger.com/profile/13627383459407464083noreply@blogger.com
