We are headed to Europe next week, and we picked up the Surface 3 the day of release. My husband's biggest client won't support Apple, and he was tired of traveling with two devices, which added up to over 6 lbs. He plans on docking it in his office, then using it in laptop mode much of the time, then as a tablet a small part of the time.
So far he is very happy with it in laptop/work mode. I confess I am not the techie in the family so I don't know exactly what he's doing, but whatever it is it is working well. No problems with browsing. We experienced a little buffering at the start of "Game of Thrones" but then worked fine. He isn't a huge app guy so I can't really comment on that. We travel as light as we can so I'm glad he's shedding four pounds this way. Now for the chargers!
