Neither fish nor meat

After Microsoft has cut prices dramatically, is probably as lead on the shelves, I allowed myself yesterday RT. Since we have an inquiry from a customer, and I thought that might actually fulfill the RT we have 299, - investing for testing.
Against the hardware, there is nothing to say. Impeccable. For my taste, my Acer Iconia lies better in the hand, because it is a little thicker, so rich, and the back is rubberized. Negative I noticed is that the on / off switch is no haptic feedback when you turn on the TAB. This led to confusion right the go! Because it did not work at first, battery to 0 percent. Apparently the tab was around a long time, because my Acer TAB went out of the box. Like Apple, Microsoft wants outrageous 40, - have, if you want to connect the TAB to a monitor, as this HDMI output scheinbat Mircrosoft specific.
Let's talk about the "Modern GUI"
Holla the forest fairy. Anyone who has since devised mean? Microsft had years to copy apart from competitors, and to make it better, and then the.
The "Back" button Windows is located in the center of the TAB. How stupid you have to be to come up with something. Even I am not more than 190 cm to operate in a position this button without a hand from the TAB to take. Beyond Design before ergonomics. The Modern GUI interface is a joke. Who has believed one could consistently use the finger-optimized surface TAB as the competitors will be disappointed. Eventually you end up again on the desktop and then have to make awkward fingers on the non-optimized surface by hand settings there. You have to rummage through for example the network settings if you run a DHCP so tedious. In defense it must be said that goes relatively well, but this is not what I had imagined. Of course you can connect a mouse or Tatstatur, but that does not save the botched surface in the least.
According to the description, a full-fledged office with is, but the most important Outlook missing. Microsoft wants to supply later in 8.1. A domain registration is not possible to switch available, but grayed out. My Music or Videos from the home NAS can be called because you can actually see all the network resources, but the damn thing will that I sign in XBOX, hähhh. If you want the store to look for applications, no "Search" is located on the app side, no, you have only the rights bar extension and then click Search Store. Illogical.
The speed of the TAB is very good. If I had not thought of. The Internet Explorer is very fixed. If, after the competitors in anything.
Conclusion after one day.
Not even on a touch screen can convince Windows 8 and lags of competitors from Apple and Android are light years behind.
Good hardware is useless if the sofware is spotty.
It will probably be in six months or even three months in another price slide and RT then goes for under 200, - over the table.
Junk Tablet halt :-)
Other negative experiences with RT as forced registration, NSA interface etc. I leave aside times.
For our customers, however, the RT could come into question when there is an Outlook.
Open a PowerPoint presentation to the customer, an Excel spreadsheet, a Winword document.
I lack only a DWG Viewer.
Surface Pro is not an option because too expensive, too noisy, battery life is too short.
I will continue to try, but can currently only awarded a maximum of two points.
And please no gebashe.
This review is my personal opinion and that must be left to me.

Edit 20/07/2013:
Apparently also work normal HDMI / Micro HDMI Adapter.
To accurate to say I have my 5, - adapter but once received / test.
Network shares work under RT if you enabled the necessary services to do so. These are all disabled by default. So you can access over the network to the RT.
Print the LAN is functioning properly. An approximately 5 year old Epson MFP was found and installed without problems.
IP entries are on the virtual keyboard to torment, since the point in the numeric window is missing.
A Alternatve keyboard is not available in the shop. Alternatively, only the desktop remains keyboard.
A microSD card is not recognized in the slot. Only when man the card via the click-point pure pressed appears the drive, but then of course immediately ejected mechanically.
I test but again geanuer.
A complete crash I had already. No reaction of TABs more. In the Event Viewer are already listed a number of serious errors. Additional software from the store have not been installed.
RDP connections also work flawlessly, but there is also a program in store, but none to again assemble in the Modern GUI interface a VPN connection, as is generally the shop is very poor to the existing offerings.

The SD slot is defective. The problem seems to be an isolated case.
Same problem here:
