iPhone-Tips-Tricks.com - Q: What is happened? A: Microsoft, Steve Ballmer, has announced the new tablet device with a keyboard. Q: How does it called? It is named "Surface". This is the same name as the big-ass table computer that Microsoft has announced back in fall 2007. See this hilarious video on

post. Q: Does it compete with the Apple iPad? A: Well it has far less apps of course to do something useful with. The iPad has about 140.000+ iPad app, Android has some hundreds and Windows Surface has just started with 0+ apps and needs to grow. (source: geek.com) The question is, what are you gonna do with a tablet PC, without a good amount of apps? Q: A loose keyboard, does that work? A: Well, we haven't been hands-on yet. However, I know that Apple has thought about a computer with touchscreen. That not works well if you use the keyboard and must touch the screen to select things!! imagine that. So I hope the touchpad on the surface computer as well as on any Macbook, enough surface to work on it. Another cosmetic thing is that you will need to attach a usb devices and power on the lid of your computer. For the rest, we will welcome Microsoft to improve the tablet market in favor of the customer. Q: video?
