Got it yesterday, its a pretty impressive piece of kit, upsides are

Screen is nice
Its fast, very smooth
its not melted my hands
does "Just work"


downsides,

Its pretty heavy, gets uncomfortable to hold
It doesnt stand up on its own

I think I still prefer my manky old Dell laptop with Ubuntu on, still a bit of tablet sceptic

Surely on an iPad it's overkill, one for an iPhone would be more realistic for the apple fanboi's.

That's because typical windows users don't love their devices as much as Apple users.
