I love my Surface tablet. I actually got rid of my iPad and haven't even missed it.

For those still on the fence, it really is worth it. Doesn't even matter if you get the Surface 1 or Surface 2, since the Surface 1 is already really fast. The only recommendation I'll make is that, whichever size/model you get, make sure it's a Surface PRO. Do not get the RT one, as using a device that looks like it's running Windows will drive you bonkers as soon as you figure out that you can't install regular Windows apps on it (or even drivers!).
