I tried one out last week and overall I really liked it...keyboards (both of them) worked a lot better than I expected. However, the performance was a little slower than I'd like. It wasn't nearly as smooth as my phone. Now, the Surface wasn't super slow or anything, but it wasn't as buttery smooth as my Windows Phone. I could tell it was lagging a little; when switching to a previous program it was a little choppy, and scrolling wasn't super smooth sometimes. Anyone else feel this way?
As an aside, why do many review sites mention that it's a con that it doesn't run Windows 7 apps? It's not like people criticize Apple or Google because the ipad or android tablets don't run PC apps.
I hear the cameras aren't very good on the Surface, but I'm not sure I understand the criticism -- aside from videoconferencing, what else do people use a tablet camera for?
