a replacement for my macbook and motorola xoom tablet
[Microsoft Surface] CXENTE:
Same here,,,
[Microsoft Surface] phailyoor:
If you install the SDK, you should be able to use intel HW virt on the emulator, meaning performance won't suck. Android x86 will probably also work.
[Microsoft Surface] come at me bro:
Will this be a full windows

Can I use my normal apps I would use, can I use windows

Will it be just like using a windows 7 laptop
[Microsoft Surface] Greywolf_Ghost:
For me it's going to be a Surface RT. Mostly mobile media from SD card. As a mobile photo edit with luck *crosses fingers Adobe will release for RT*.

I just don't see Pro beating RT in Battery life. Add I don't have a need of the Office apps past reading what is sent in email, it does not bug me the RT will have mostly an Office viewer, no need to edit docs or excel.

More importantly the RT will become an extension of my phone on the go. As my eyes get older 3.5 - 4.5 inch screens have become harder to see (email and text), one reason I can't read a paperback book these days.

So share my unlimited data to my RT, and talk on the phone at the same time, a good way to pass time on a 5 hour bus ride.
[Microsoft Surface] Dadstar:
I plan on using it for homework with Office, and of course games, browsing, and soaking up all the beauty of W8! My question though: what is the difference between the Office on RT and Office on Pro? That could ultimately affect which one I'll get.
[Microsoft Surface] Greywolf_Ghost:
Office RT is Home & Student version, but built for Arm Tablet.

Pro will have full version ( all extras ).

If your in need of a full Office, then wait the extra 3 months for Pro.
[Microsoft Surface] Dadstar:
What does the Home and Student version provide?
[Microsoft Surface] ScottXe:
I am awaiting for long that the Surface Pro that is able to run MS Office Pro including Access replaces my laptop pc.
[Microsoft Surface] Chillingly Based:
Word Excel PowerPoint OneNote
[Microsoft Surface] Tempest790:
I plan on getting both versions (RT and Pro) and both keyboards (Touch Cover and Type Cover). The RT will mainly be used at home and for my wife. I think that will make a good reader as well, plus educational apps for the kids. The touch keyboard should make typing less cumbersome than the screen keyboard. Plus, it's very easy to detach anyway.

The Pro version can really replace my laptop. I have an HP 20" PVA monitor with a kickstand. It's about a centimeter thick, so I'll bring it with me along with an external keyboard and mouse. The monitor has only displayport, so the Pro version will fit the bill perfectly.

Now I'll have to choose the color...

Pretty much a laptop/tablet replacement since I havent had a laptop since Pentium 4 and tired of android tablets since all I do is browse the internet on them can't write actual reports on them.

[Microsoft Surface] Chillingly Based:
Android as an operating system is terrible for digital ink. Windows has pen input support built in.
[Microsoft Surface] ohgood:
hmm, Ive never seen someone use ink on a computer/tab/laptop. not saying it can't happen, just haven't seen people do it. usually virtual keyboards are faster and easier on the battery, or Bluetooth keyboards for longer essays.

you're "ink"ing full reports or essays with epens? that, is coooooool
[Microsoft Surface] Chillingly Based:
No, I'm an engineer that works in the field (Civil engineer) at construction projects. Our employer issues us Thinkpad x220T tablets, with an active digitizer. We use them to communicate by text, design, drawing quickly around the job site. Considering some job sites can be linked but far away (Parts being built and used in separate places).

An iPad or Android tablet doesn't suffice for a couple of reasons:

iPad:

Very asinine sharing APIs, extremely frustrating and time consuming to work these devices when you have multiple software

Durability

Lack of pen input

Android:

Better sharing and multitasking, but has a lack of software much like the iPad

Durability and reliability can be hit and miss

The biggest thing hurting these two is their processing power however. ARM isn't at x86 levels of performance, and wont be for a long while.

A good video of how a tablet PC can impact a job site with its versatility: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EJ6v5nQHzKs
[Microsoft Surface] Tempest790:
I haven't seen what charging options for the Surface will be. I'm seeing 2.1 amp car chargers for the iPad. I wonder if that would be able to charge the Surface too (at least the RT version anyway). It would be nice not having to lug around another power brick.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JohnM:
Will AOSP and ROM development be the same across all US devices?

For example, will Cyanogenmod have seperate teams for each carrier's device, or will one team develop for the US variant and then change carrier stuff in the ROM at the end?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TeamERA:
Well this phone already has a team, TeamEpic, I don't know about the other carriers, but the devs will cherry pick some things from each devs github, so it should be great team work across the board :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] five40:
All the US S III are pretty much the same except for radio hardware and software which ROMs do not change anyway so I don't think it will take much work for them compatibel with multiple carriers.

Hi guys....just recently I bought a power pack for my Samsung galaxy s2......if u guys dunno what it is....it is basically a hard protector case which supports an extra battery.....

Anyway as the power pack doesn't have a on or off switch it keeps charging the phone.....because of this the phone gets pretty hot round 46'c.......so I wanna noe if there is an app that can stop the phone fron charging when connected to the pack......and allows me to decide when it should charge.....

And also is a constant temp of 46'c ok? Or is it too high???

[Fascinate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JLawL:
I have been using TouchWiz 2.8.1 for about 3 months now...and out of nowhere I am suddenly unable to call or text. It says my service is currently unavailable.

I re-flashed my phone, wiped out my data and everything, and it worked again perfectly, for about 3 days...then the same thing just suddenly happened just now.

My data works perfectly, I have 3g available, but I cannot make calls, or send texts.

I really don't want to have to continually wipe out my phone to fix this...is there something that may be causing this? I ran this same ROM / Kernel for 3 months without a single issue. Now its happened twice in 3 days... No new apps or anything...

[Desire HD Android Development] cee43ja1:
you might want to add the Neok AceDroid kernel to the installer. after using the Blackout 1.0 kernel for almost two weeks, i switched back to AceDroid. no freezing or performance issues with the Blackout kernel, just the popping noise.

also, in no way am i a developer of any sort, but i have a possible idea. (i am assuming that current kernels are not being based off the Telus DHD kernel source, and that the Telus source has sense 3.0)

from what i've gathered, eventhough the AT&T Inspire has gingerbread kernel source, it doesn't have sense 3.0 code in it, which would cause sound and usb problems on sense 3.0 roms. if the kernel source was switched to the Telus DHD, would those problems go away? would dual mic still be enabled?
