Time to start Googling power user tips. It's awfully tempting.

Now Microsoft has Windows Phone 7 and 8 apps, Windows 8 PRO and RT apps. Messy.
That's the worry. What if the likes of Spotify, Netflix, Dropbox and Evernote never get developed for it. These apps are my cloud.
That said, the idea of being able to edit Word, Excel and Powerpoint documents in a package that's similar in form to an iPad is terribly, terribly tempting.
