Is it not upgradable on your own?
From everything I've read the ram is soldered onto the motherboard, but I would love to be wrong!

It's not like Microsoft promised "no compromises" in design or anything.
I don't know what's worse, Microsoft for saying that crap, or the people that actually believed it.
Interesting the MS design team had an AMA today. Some quick tidbits:

Possible extended battery option? Full docking accessory?
I hope WMC will extend some details for more Surface Pro accessories.

I drove an hour to a Best Buy and Staples. The Best Buy had 1x128gb model and it was sold before they opened. They still had a 64gb model in stock. Staples had none. I called and searched other Best Buys and Staples in a 300 mile radius, and found the 128gb model only in stock in 2 Houston area Best Buys. They'd be sold by the time I could get there though.
Best Buy, Staples and Microsoft websites are all showing sold out. Ebay prices are outrageous. FML.
I'm starting to think that one of these would be the perfect front end as an HTPC. Full windows install. I'm thinking Plex or XBMC, it has an i5 (mobile) processor to do any transcoding if necessary, HDMI out, touchscreen and a built in kickstand. It has checks in all the right boxes. Am I way off base?
Looks like Microsoft has completely figured out the apple supple demand tactics.
They should have gone with 128GB/4GB ram and 256GB/8GB ram options instead.
Ugh I wanted to buy one today. I did not believe demand would be this high. That, and demand will of course look high when every store had one or two at most.
Now...how long until best buy receives more.
im not sure why nobody is buying the 64gb. the tablet can take full size usb flash drive or microSD...

This is a full on computer. You don't buy flash drives to increase your desktops storage do you?
