What's great about it: It's small and priced right.
What's not so great: The short, stubby little USB connector.
Pretty good little 3 in 1 card reader at a a good price point. There isn't a whole lot to say about a passive device like this. The read / write speed is good, well at least as good as the medium you are using.
The one thing I can think of to say that I don't really like is the short USB cable it comes with. It's only like 4 inches and not really easy to use attached to my tower on the floor. I haven't tried using it with a USB hub because, in my experience writing to SD cards through a hub is pretty hit or miss.

What's great about it: Setup
What's not so great: Nothing really.
I use this on a secondary desktop PC I've got setup in the dining room, about as far from my wireless router as I can get and still be in the house. The signal is great 4/5 bars when other products and the previous USB adapter would only get 2 or 3 out of 5 bars signal.
Setup was very easy on the PC with Windows 7 installed. I just plugged it in and everything worked. I haven't installed the drivers that came with the adapter because I haven't needed too. I've got nothing really bad to say or really good to say. This is just a good little adapter that does what is says it's supposed to do.

What's great about it: Very quick and easy to connect , nice keyboard feel, stays connected until you pull it off, doesn't need it's own power.
What's not so great: Not a full keyboard, key travel is a little shallow but that's to be expected.
The on screen keyboard is nice but if you have a lot of typing to do, say while typing a long e-mail or document you will need this keyboard.
The other keyboard that they are currently giving away and that comes in several colors is alright but there is no "feel" to it. This keyboard on the other hand is excellent. There is a real feel to the typing, much more so that the other one. The Keys are raised and have a click "feel" when you are typing. There is no number pad and for me that's a little bit of a bummer since I use the number pad all the time but I got used to it pretty quickly.
It has a track pad with right and left buttons that comes in very handy at times when you are in the desk top and need to right click something. You don't need to figure out how to do it. Unfortunately though I haven't found a way to disable it so my big paws cause the pointer to move when I least expect it. ;)
It doesn't require you to charge it up like other keyboards and Bluetooth keyboards. It also stays connected very well. You can believe the commercials on this one. You can really pick up the whole surface and wiggle it around without the keyboard pulling free.
The back is covered with a soft felt like covering so it won't scratch surfaces and won't slide around on you.

What's great about it: Windows 8 Pro, plenty of space for what I use it for, has USB and SD slot for expansion, fast and can get the job done.
What's not so great: Only 128GB SSD. Kind of pricey when compared to other similarly speced laptops. Touch screen a little flaky sometimes.
This is a great little addition and complement to my work laptop and my home development computer. I've got it loaded up with Office 2013 and Visual studio 2012 and have no problems with it. While I don't think I would enjoy coding a whole application or writing a full spreadsheet or word document, it's fine for making the quick edit here and there.
It's great for watching videos or surfing the net but the back gets pretty hot after awhile. Battery life could be better or I could use the recommended settings. ;) I wouldn't recommend it for reading books. There are other devices out there that are easier to use and lighter for book reading.
It's pretty heavy after awhile and I notice that I use is propped up on it's built in stand most of the time. Some times the touch screen doesn't work the way I expect it too but I've got pretty big fingers so I find that I use the included pen more than I expected I would at first. The hand writing recognition is very good especially with my horrible writing. The three options for the on screen keyboard are great to have and I find switching between them quick and easy.
All in all I really like this for a first gen product and it fits in great with the way I work. I'd buy another one but they are a little to expensive right now and the 64GB version doesn't have enough free space.
If you do buy one of these don't lose the pen that come with it. They don't seem to have replacements anywhere and other pens won't work with it.
This product is... easy to set up, Perfect for Business, Variety of apps available, A nice compact size, Easy to navigate, Great screen size

Is this compatible with Canon Power Shot 120 IS?
It works well with me Canon SD990 IS. I haven't had a problem with any of the SanDisk cards with this camera or my Rebel Ti.

Does the Stylus Pen work with Estimates in Quickbooks 2013
I want to use a tablet that will allow me create estimates from QuickBooks and have my customer sign the estimate within QuickBooks without having to print it out. Is this possible with the Surface Pro/Stylus?
Yes this would work great. The only thing you would need to do is change the default on screen keyboard type.

Will Windows 7 Professional work with this computer?
Can I use Windows 7 Professional on this computer? Many of my programs are this format.
No you can't install Windows 7 on either the Surface Pro and especially the Surface RT. I imagine you could try but if you did manage to install Windows 7 it would be missing drivers for just about every piece of hardware. It wouldn't be a good experience.
