Microsoft has finally figured it out!

I love this device more then any device I've had in the past. I currently use an iPhone 6, MacBook Retina and now this. I sold my iPad Air so that I could buy a Surface 3 and it is the best thing I've ever done!
Windows 10 makes this device amazing! The ability to switch between tablet mode and desktop mode have finally brought the best of both worlds together.
Stop Waiting and just go buy it already. You won't regret it.

Best Battery Life on the market!

Everyone is worried about the most features or the best looking screen but they seem to over look battery life! No one wants to recharge a watch every night! This fitness smart watch has amazing battery life and still as a ton of great features!
Is it the best smart watch? No. Is it the best fitness tracker? No. But it is the best of both for the price? YES! The screen is dim in a dark room but it's still easily visible and watches have had a push button back light for years. The screen does have a lag between you swiping and the screen moving but it's a small delay and doesn't bother me a bit. It's super light and super thin and does everything I want!
I would choose this over any android wear or the apple watch! Battery life is king! And it's a watch people, it's not meant to replace your phone or tablet but to compliment it and tell the time haha

Microsoft Surface Pro 2 Tablet: More capable than your average tablet but lighter and smaller than a laptop, the Surface Pro 2 features hands-on productivity with the ability to fully support Microsoft Office (sold separately). Multitask with side-by-side apps, prop up your tablet with the built-in kickstand, or connect accessories via the USB and display ports for a work-efficient desktop setup.

Best Of Both World!!!!

I sold my 15in MacBook Pro and my iPad 4th Generation and bought the Surface Pro 2 and it is more powerful and more portable then my MacBook Pro was and its more productive and useful then my iPad was. And now I have one product that takes care of what 2 device use to do.
My biggest problem that was I took my iPad with me everywhere I went and it was great for browsing the web and playing games but if I wanted to get some work done I had to know I was wanting to do work so I could take my MacBook Pro. With the Surface I no longer have to worry about that. Its a tablet when I need it to be and a laptop when I need to get work done.
Also comparing it to the iPad this thing is awesome because you can run more then one app at a time side by side. I can't tell you how annoying it was to switch between 2 apps back and forth when I was using a text book and taking notes. Now on the surface I have adobe reader on one side and OneNote on the other and there is no more switching between to apps. And speaking of taking notes the Stylus on this thing is amazing!
This thing is a workhorse as well because I have Ubuntu installed on a virtual machine and I'm able to do simulations for research. I have PhotoShop installed and it is extremely smooth and fast! I am also able to install MATLAB and do some problems in there. Doing all of that and still getting a great battery life is awesome!
The battery last me all day and I use it to take notes in about 5 hours of class each day. So it really does last 7 hours of good use. I am always worry that 7 hours of estimated time means 3 and half for me because I am a power user but even as a power user I am getting 7 hours which means if you aren't a power user then you can expect even a better battery life.
All in all this is the best product I have owned hands down! I do wish it was a little thinner and lighter but for the power packed into this thing I am definitely ok with it.

The long-awaited and much-anticipated next installment of the award-winning The Elder Scrolls franchise is here. Now, the expansive, open world that forever revolutionized the face of the fantasy epic leads you deeper into the combat, the magic and the myth than you've ever been before. This time, you don't just play as a character, you truly become whomever it is you wish to be — and have the freedom to do anything you can possibly imagine. This follow-up to the 2006 Game of the Year, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, offers stunning graphics and a gripping storyline that immerses you in the game from the moment you turn it on. Are you ready to unroll the Scroll and let the journey begin?Imagine rolling clouds, rugged mountains, bustling cities, lush fields and crumbling dungeons. Imagine ancient dragons beholding secrets so powerful they could transform your future. Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim immerses you in the engrossing world of the franchise you already know and love with more realism, more choice and more intensity than ever before. Featuring a new game engine that brings every tiny environmental aspect to life in blistering detail and AI that brings you close to your allies — and your enemies — Skyrim blurs the line between your world and that of the game. An all-new character engine opens wider an already vast virtual world, putting every decision, every action and every consequence entirely in your hands as you arm yourself with hundreds of new weapons, abilities and spells. Developed by Bethesda Game Studios, the creators of the 2008 Game of the Year, Fallout 3, this immaculate fifth chapter challenges your skills, immerses your mind and will forever change the way you view gaming. It's time to return. It's time for Skyrim.

Greatest Game Ever!
on December 4, 2011

I have put around 55 hours into this game and it is completely amazing. I have only done about 1/3 of the main story line and still having many many side quest to do. So you get your money's worth out of this game unlike other games where you beat it in 8 to 12 hours.
Also I updated the game and it worked just fine for me. Didn't have a single problem with updating.
What's great about it: EVERYTHING!! Gameplay, Storyline, it's taking over my life.
What's not so great: There are a few glitches but with as big as the game is that is expected.
I would recommend this to a friend!

DO NOT BUY GAME IS BROKEN
By ASeriousReviewer
Skyrim starts our strong but eventually, about 10-20 hours in, becomes severely crippled. Check the bethesda help forums for this product, you will see tons of complaints. These are not isolated instances and apply to every copy. Expect constant drop in frames per second, textures not loading, controller input not recognized, and freezes whenever the action is too hectic. Buy another game. You were warned.

This is a curious review. I have many friends who have been playing this game across multiple platforms and i have not heard of every of them having this issue. I myself have been playing on the PS3 and have put a little over 60 hours into the game and non of the issue that you describe have been effecting me. So with that being said I would no agree that the game is broken and the game works fine. Maybe it just installed bad on your system or maybe your system is not getting ventilated properly and is having issues processing. The game works fine and I would encourage people to completely disregard this review.

Mid-December Shipping Date?!

Seems to be a lot of discussion on other tech news sites about a Mid-December backlog release date for this model. I ordered in early October but have no shipping date, and can't find this in any Best Buy resource.

Anyone got any information??
I had the same issue because I preordered mine on Oct 1. But I found a store about an 1 and half away from me that had them in stock so I went and bought my there.
