Lol, "Deep Sigh" is right. I'm totally feeling you on wanting a full caffeine versions. If I needed to buy something now that was more for work/business (assuming less travel than I typically engage in), I'd look for the 13 inch device (with wacom mesh) and just take a little more weight in the...

It's certainly true that Surface misses the mark on some issues -- no gps and no 3g//4g. Sigh. Actually, I can't think of any 3g/4g windows 8 devices... I wonder if 8 drinks up bandwith or something. Lack of a cellular data connection is definitely a stumbling block for me. I travel a lot and...

I've been doing a lot of research into the available windows 8 devices, and it turns out that many of the specs you want (I wanted them too) are apparently incompatible on the market. For example: I can't find a 1920x1080 machine currently on the market with a 6+ hour battery life that also...

Lenovo yoga doesn't support pressure sensitive stylus (digitizer)

I'm fairly impressed by the Surface RT. I assumed it was going to be a piece of garbage compared to the Surface pro, but reviews since it launched got me considering picking one up until more windows 8 hybrids become available. Ultimately decided against it, but it seems quite a lot more...

I'm running windows 8 RP on a Viliv s10 blade. I resolved the issues with sliding things out from the edges by re-calibrating my touch screen. Works like a charm now, although I had to tap up to a centimeter from the cross-hairs on the Microsoft calibrator before all the edge taps and swipes...

yeesh, what a freaking hassle. I can't tell you how many times I clean installed the various versions of CP and RP trying to fix various little issues. So now, if I understood correctly, I'm going to have to reinstall Win 7, using the license key under my battery to get the Win 8 pro deal...

Here Here! I think the time is about right for a tablet that can work as a desktop. The market has had plenty of time to experiment with a hobbled OS on the ipad (that's what I call playskool), and now consumers can have a tablet that will be perfectly functional for drafting in word, power...

I use this for my media pc: Logitech MX Air Rechargeable Cordless Air Mouse - Mouse - Wireless - RF No mouse pad necessary, air gestures to track forward and back and control volume level work really well too. why would you want to use two finger scrolling on a mouse anyway? That can't be...

Lol, I wonder if people would have been quite as happy to accept them ;)

Do you suppose there's enough beer in Australia?

Lol! Microsoft has to push RT development because there are, like, no metro apps (if you didn't just read that in a valley girl accent, you should have). Unless the metro store grows substantially, Surface RT purchasers are going to be really annoyed when they get their shiny device home and...

Definitely a big yes for me. Windows 8 made my tablet usable.

So I'm in Norway. On Wednesday I went down to visit my husband's friend at a startup work space in Oslo, at this place: Introducing Startup Summer 2012 teams | Startup Norway It turned out we had missed the representative from Microsoft by about half an hour. He was down there to give a...

I understand that plenty of people won't agree with me, but I liked IE10Metro in CP -- the webs were so much cleaner.

I wonder how many users will upgrade to 8 and then revert back to 7? That'll be a handy data set. You'd have to have your head in the sand to buy a touch screen PC between June 12 and the Windows 8 launch; upgrading will be pretty irrelevant to everyone else.

Great graphic! I hadn't seen that one yet! I had heard that Samsung defended an intellectual property suit in the EU brought by apple (who claimed they had patented a thin touch screen device that you tap, etc). Samsung pointed out the PADD in TNG and called it prior art. Just beautiful! LOL.

That's why I like to vote with my money. I just don't buy from companies that don't offer good service. I started a warranty claim with Nokia once two days before the manufacturer warranty expired. They sent me a packet to mail my phone to them, and I sent the phone well after the expiration...

I go to Radio Shack now instead of best buy -- it's a lot smaller, but there's something like seven of them in the city, so one of them is bound to have what I want. I've given up on checking online to see if things are available in my local Best Buy, because half the time best buy can't even...

Lol, "pooched" sounds like a good description of that whole situation. What a hassle :(
