    Included with and priced accordingly, cheers for jacking up the price via software MS for something a lot of users wont even use.

    I would hope that a word processor would respond instantly to keystrokes and could scroll smoothly in 2012.

    Buy a cheaper Android then? I would personally pay the extra for a device with proper functions beyond watching/browsing.
