All these news from engadget, cnet, verge are weird .. they seem to see this differently from us. they have facts to support this of course, i hope they sell decently well. they are good devices.
also, to expand on this....
I agree, on bigger websites, it just seems to me that no one can figure out what the Surface Pro is. "dur dur dur is it a laptop or tablet? Me can't figure it out dur dur dur" (how I read every one of these reviews on other sites).
I don't know if its clickbait, or the writers have some agenda to keep their Apple purchases as "the right thing" so they don't admit they're on an inferior product (because why else would they lie??) or if they're just plain stupid.
During the keynote, I'm pretty sure I heard Panos say "its a full PC with a tablet body" at least 3 times. At Build 2013, Steve Ballmer called it a hybrid. Every other executive has either called it a hybrid or 2-in-1. I just honestly can't understand what these people are seeing that I don't. They'd never call the iPad "basically an overpriced big iPhone that you can't make calls on". Its a tablet. The Pro is a hybrid. How hard is it to understand??
My 45-year old dad picked it up in one day and trust me, if it wasn't for his email app on his iPhone, he probably wouldn't check his email because of the technology hassle, so why can't "professionals"?
I don't know, these "journalists" just constantly act like they were browsing Microsoft.com one day and the Surface just showed up and they're scrambling to figure out what it is.
