Yes, it is true that there are less apps for Surface tablets than iPad or Android tablets. But, that is really when you compare 1000's of apps.

I would look at it this way... let's say you are looking for a cooking app... the Windows App store may have ten choices for you. The Apple App store will have a few dozen choices.

I hope that helps.

Hello there,

The Surface tablet is not designed to download content like movies. You are able to see movies online through Internet Explorer and Windows Apps such as Netflix, Hulu and YouTube.

I hope this was helpful to you.

It does not come with a keyboard, you must purchase the touch or type keyboard separately. I recommend the type keyboard even though it is a little more expensive because it feels better, and I feel it easier to type more accurately as well.

You can't "Transfer" apps from any device to another device. If the apps you use are available on the Microsoft Store then you can just download the same apps to the Surface. If the app has an account then your information should also be available. If your apps are linked to an account like a Microsoft Account then some may download when you log into that account.

Hello there,

Like most tablets, the Surface 2 is not designed to download software or files. If you are going to a site to listen to your MP3's using IE without downloading them, you will able to do this on the Surface 2 tablet. If you are looking for a tablet that can download MP3s, software and files, the Surface Pro 2 will work. It is a tablet and PC all in one.

I hope this was helpful to you.
