I know this has nothing to do with Real Estate (yet) but I got to have this new toy from Microsoft! Microsoft Surface
I haven't had a chance a chance to see this product in person but judging from Microsoft demo page; I think it has some real possibilities.

Remember you heard it from me first! (Your Olympia Real Estate Geek) Just kidding it's probably old news already but it's new to me.

I saw this on new product just this week also. It looks like anyone could use it. Not available to us just yet....
Welcome to ActiveRain from a fellow KW agent, Alex! Interesting device from Redmond. I'll have to take a look and see what kinds of applications this may be useful for.
Ranea,
I am curious where exactly did you see this new computer/display? I would like to see well it works first hand. I have a very bad addiction to buying new electronics :-).
Hi John,
Thanks for welcome! I've only been a KW agent for about a month but so far so good. I read the red book before I got my license and it was one of the reasons I became a realtor. There wasn't a KW office in my area at the time so I hung my license at another office but a KW office just opened up in my area.
That does look pretty cool. But I'm not getting too excited yet because it is Microsoft. I've never been too impressed with their new stuff.
Alex, I didn't realize you were a KW agent, Congrats! Don't get to excited, I saw it on TV. Gates was doing a hands on demo, not me. It will be ready for business market soon, but a while longer on the personal level.

Welcome to ActiveRain and to Keller Williams. Looks like you're getting off on the right foot.
Alex nice post, welcome to active rain. Looks like we have another tech-head. You did not tell us the price or where we can get the board. That means I have to go google it. If you would have put a link this lazy tech guy would only have to click the link. Very nice post.....
