That’s the usual cynical review, but it did add a few things I didn’t know about the docking station, the ability to run 2 screens, extra USB ports (on the Pro2, one of them is USB 1.0 – really?), and the Power Cover is also usable on the Surface Mark I.
The review leaves out extra RAM, card slot, cameras, size of the SSD, and some other minor details, in favour of emphasising that the Windows Store lags far behind the Apple and Google counterparts, with only 100K apps. Do a need a choice of a million or more? I reckon if I could get 50 good applications I would be quite happy. Also, iirc one was to be 5-point touch, the other 10-point; one has USB 2.0 the other USB 3.0 – I guess I need to search for some more complete information.
