It's going great.but we did have to return one of our surfaces when the keyboard stopped responding occasionally. - stw I don't even use spell check - my misspellings are on purpose. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike Sent: Tuesday, November 6, 2012 7:13 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [OT] Soft v. Type Keyboard with Surface RT Love my Surface RT but felt that the soft keyboard was slowing me down. So I bought the Type keyboard, just got it today, and it is perhaps worse! Do you think I just got a defective one? What happens is, when I'm typing very fast, it occasionally just stops typing. This happens in any application. On the other hand, the Type keyboard may actually be better when typing more slowly, so perhaps it is worthwhile. Anybody else having similar experiences? Is it easy to return these keyboards?
