Microsoft Surface: Not Yet a Polished Product



I finally got my hands on Microsoft surface at the Samsung pavilion in Vancouver this weekend. The Responsiveness was less than quick. After using multi-touch on my MacBook Pro and iPhone, I expected a physical and seamless feeling experience on the Surface. What I discovered was nothing less than a very delayed response time on this device.

The Palm Pre, which I used to shoot this picture, running WebOS, well out performed this surface. The most interesting part of the experience were the glass blocks, which when placed on the screen, would bring up various windows that allowed sharing content and other arbitrary activities.
