Don't think I'll bother.
Really pleased with my customised Galaxy Note 10.1 ( white, WiFi only 16Gb version) Tablet.
OK, I know it costs about half of what the Micro$haft slate costs, but I'm really happy with it. 😉

Nice tablet that is no doubt, but the price is just ridiculous.

Too much money for a tablet it cost more than an iPad nothing should cost more than an Apple. Maybe this is why they cut the orders in half.

this is not another tablet guys, think about it like a "ultrabook" in tablet form factor, there is a i5/4gb ram, SSD AND a 1080p screen, 899$ is a modest price

Tablets - The solution to a problem which doesn't exist yet. Yours in 128GB Mico$haft flavour for only $1000 before taxes.

The battery life is horrible and no keyboard included ! Sorry microsoft I was considering this but it's a total failure to me.

For this price I'd rather have a nice laptop with all the real capabilities for work or play and non of the inconveniences of a tablet format. The only real use (imo) of a tablet is to dink around on the Subway/Metro - and you can buy a $300 tablet to do that. :?

can see myself picking up something like this if i had extra money to blow. would function like a laptop when i need it to and a tablet when i don't. the price is kinda ridiculous though, esp with such limited HD space.

Such an unreasonable price.
They are trying to be Apple.
I hope it fails so some form of price normalising happens.
Then, it might actually take some sales away from their competitors.

Is this tablet any better than a netbook or laptop you could buy for $300, 1/3 of the price? Also, it's a rectangular device with rounded corners. Apple may want some money.

only 4 hour battery life?? lmao
I'm still fairly happy with my first gen Ipad. was really considering the original Surface but not reading the best reviews of it and not sure how 16:9 ratio will work in portrait mode trying to read an ebook or e-mags. I much prefer portrait mode on ipad when it comes to reading.

4 hour battery life lol. The only thing it's powering is Micro$haft CEO wallets with all the money they saved by using dog crap for batteries.
Seriously, $900-$1000 pre tax and they didn't include a reasonable battery, sounds legit.

Lol, I'd rather buy a laptop than their frankenstein laptop-tablet hybrid.

If you are actually going to utilize its portability with insane power then you wouldn't mind the price, but if it's the other way around, then you will, definitely.
