Given i have more tablets than i can poke a stick at, i think i can give you my 
take on it.

I have a desktop pc (my gaming rig) a surface RT (1 not 2), an asus tab RT, an 
asus gaming laptop, Samsung book 9 plus, dell venue 8.
Nexus 7, 10 and 4. And Nokia 1520. 

Use them all depending which is charged and what I'm doing... Favour the asus 
RT over surface, but to be honest i would not get Rt device. See dell venue 8. 
Best screen is Samsung (quad Hd is awesome, touch screen and great battery)
Love the venue 8, the size is right and i don't take laptop to work anymore, 
why Rt when you can get win 8.1????  Love 6" phone (wp8 is good this time 
around).

Typed on my phone :)

If i had to choose just one device it would be the dell venue 8. Got VS premium 
installed on it and mouse, keyboard and external monitor!

Subject: [OT] Surface 2 OR Surface Pro 2

Hi folks,
 
I've made the decision to purchase either a Surface 2 or a Surface Pro 2, but 
I'm completely torn as to which one to get.
 
I just want a tablet device that I can use when travelling, sitting on the 
couch, or in bed. I want a keyboard with trackpad/mouse so the touch cover is 
fine for both. I don't think battery life will be a big issue. I'm likely to 
get HDMI adapter for a Pro.
 
My choices are do I get a Surface 2 as my mobile computing device and use 
desktop PCs at home and work OR do I get a Surface Pro 2 and use it for both 
home and work?
 
Will a Surface Pro 2 really be a laptop/desktop replacement PC or is it a pain 
with the small screen and single USB port? Or is it just an overblown toy and 
I'll miss my laptop?
 
Can anyone give me any argument for one or the other?
 
Cheers.
 
James.
