Hi Panos and company,
Will the Surface Pro II or the Surface II have NFC enabled?
I use Bluetooth to transfer documents from my Lumia 920 to my Surface Pro on a daily basis, even hourly sometimes since the Surface Pro does not have LTE support. It's a bit of a hassle having to handshake them together every time I want to transfer a file. NFC just seems like the best option to utilize that functionality.
That being said, if NFC IS included, will it have compatibility with other devices (Andriod, ios shiver, or even NFC tags?) People I work with don't have the bumper to bumper benefits of Microsoft products I do, but it would be great to be able to share stuff faster.
Also, With the integration of the "blade" would there be any possibility of a straight up screen that users could customize to their control needs (Think Nintendo DS) so that rather than buying a cover for everything, you could have a cover for anything? I bring up that point because I do a lot of audio and video production. If you could create a control unit for a sound system for example and run all your EQ and sliders from a touch cover, then swap over to a keyboard to type notes, or to a "gaming" pad to play games, the possibilities could be endless!
Granted I'd expect to pay a pretty penny for that functionality.
That was... longer than intended,
But Thanks and keep up the killer work!
