Does anyone have a Surface Pro 3, laptop/tablet, I am thinking on getting one.  If someone does have one, has any dependency on the Cloud or any other Network Virtual storage or software.  How do you like it! I am thinking of the i7 processor, 16gb ran, 256 drive. with protector/keyboard. Overall what do you think, do you regret getting it or not.

I bet it is a good tablet, I think a real keyboard is a real plus. For some reason they didn't put
a GPS in it, so I got the Galaxy note 12.2 with a keyboard. Moving from a "normal" computer
to what passes for a user interface on these tablets is a learning curve for me.

My tablet seems underpowered... if the one you're looking at has an I7 cpu in it, that's
a big plus... but like I said, you can forget about any offline GPS/mapping ability...

The biggest mistake people make when buying a Windows tablet is to get one that's under powered. The Surface Pro 3 does not fall into this category. It's one of the fastest tablets out their and no doubt you'll be happy with it.

But your wallet won't.

No GPS is a Plus for me!!! My cell phone is a Motorola RazR ver.3 with no GPS!!  Is it Cloud or Net Device dependent, or is it totally stand alone unit??
