    Anyone here own a surface go? Have a surface laptop and have to say I like it and now in the market for something for some browsing, Netflix but mainly meeting notetaking, PDF annotation etc. Not sure an iPad fits the bill and Samsung tablets seem expensive (even if they include a stylus in with some models). Any other recommendations for this kind of work welcome! Any idea if the price might drop soon?

    Have an 8" Samsung Tab (SM-P200) that I use for exactly this.
    PDF annotations, e-books and study notes.
    Cost me a total of @€;200 delivered which is quite a bit less than a surface go if price is a consideration.

    Thanks - thought I'd read something about it not working with a pen but all the different Samsungs seem to have confused me. Might keep an eye out for one of those as with a case it'd still be less than half a surface go. Not sure how much work processing id be at.
