Good thing I read this, as I was about to bring up the Microsoft Go 2 Surface.

Funny, I got the Go 2 to get away from Android. I like having windows on a tablet sized device. Windows is what I know and like using. But we all have different wants and likes.

Do you like it? I looked at the Go when it first came out. It seemed very small for a Windows device. Also expensive after you add keyboard and pen. Now I see it has been discontinued and replaced by the Go 2, which you have.

My Kindle Paperwhite arrived this morning. I'm used to high resolution on the Samsung 10.1 screen (WQXGA) and the Paperwhite is equivalent or better at 300 dpi. Being able to read text in Bookerly or Palatino font is a huge win for me. I hate sans serif. Most browsers can display only sans serif unless a website sets something else (even then Firefox mobile cannot).

The state of Android tablets is pathetic IMO. Thus the idea of buying a Chromebook above.
