Deal purchased in King's Lynn Sainsburys, but possibly national where stock last. Microsoft Surface 3 LTE 64GB tablet is £380, plus half-price Microsoft keyboard cover only £50. They had 3 in stock when I got mine on Friday.

Good luck finding one, MS will discontinue these from December onwards so will be store specific.
Good price, voted HOT.

Full Windows 10, running on an Intel quad-core Z7-8700 processor. The RT line was discontinued with the surface 2.

Use one at work. It works well. However I still prefer to use my acer 2in1 which I use on my mobile hotspot.

2 or 4GB ram?

Probably 2gb ram. The Microsoft store is out of stock but lists the 64gb models as having 2gb and the 128gb variants as 4gb. The 64gb 4G LTE model was last listed at £499.99.

A lot of money for a fairly limited windows tablet.

Limited?

Yeah, the ability to use a Surface Pen with 256 levels of pressure sensitivity is soooo limiting, not to mention the Mini Displayport to drive a monitor or projector plus built-in LTE for 4G access almost anywhere. :wink:
If you can live with the 2Gb RAM and 64Gb storage (expand with microSD), this is the cheapest way to get into the Surface line which, as people consistently fail to realise, is all about the pen. For anyone wanting to sketch, take handwritten notes or mark up PDFs there is little to compare price wise. An equivalent LTE 9.7" iPad Pro (2Gb RAM, 32Gb storage) is £669 plus £99 for the Pencil = £768. This works out at £425 (pen is £45) with a full Windows 10 OS!

The offer in Ramsgate Sainsburys was for £400 down from £500 so looks like they have cut another £20 off.
They do (64GB models) only come with 2GB ram.
