So February 9th is fast approaching, and I've sold my 3rd Generation iPad to help fund my unhealthy addiction to all things tech.
If anybody reading this has seen other posts of mine, I work for Apple - love their products, but I just decided to see what else was out there... Enter the Surface.
This unit got my interest - but at a price point I can't really justify, knowing I would have to purchase a keyboard, case, screen protectors, etc... I would ballpark the pricing out at around $1250 all things said and done.
Lately, however, I've been throwing around the idea of purchasing an Acer Iconia W700-6691 (64GB Internal SSD). It comes with a case, dock, Bluetooth keyboard... at $899.
I like that it has 1920x1080 resolution, but also that the screen is an inch bigger. I don't care that it's .5 lbs heavier than the iPad, maybe I'll get more muscle definition.
I know that there have been issues with the Wi-Fi, and I've seen various fixes here and there - but if anyone else who has one would like to help tip the scale, I would appreciate it!
(and about the thread title, I AM the first to post in this sub-forum, so )
