even when it was attached to the screen, the SPX keyboard would be so high that it was hard to touch items near the bezel.
So the CNET guy (or The Verge guy) mentioned that the new version of the keyboard uses carbon fiber and is thinner so it's easier to touch items near the bezel. It also stays attached to the Surface body better. Now that I think of it, it must be The Verge guy. He was banging on the keyboard on purpose to see what the typing experience would be like.
Anyhow, it's true that when folded and held upside down so the keyboard is on the bottom the magnet isn't strong enough to keep it closed due to gravity but it's a non-issue in normal use since carrying in one hand keeps it closed or in a slim shoulder bag.
If unfolded, then false. With it unfolded and the keyboard angled and elevated it's held in pretty well by the magnet even when I pull on it with medium force. As for touching the UI elements towards the bottom edge of the screen where the task bar is it's easily doable with the thumb and pinky but more awkward with other fingers if nails aren't trimmed. Or, just use the touchpad.
I wouldn't rely on The Verge since they're trash. I plan to add the Surface Pro 8 and while the keyboard from the X is reusable I hope the pen is too since I don't care about the haptics.

Since I don't own the new keyboard yet, I am relying on The Verge for that information.

That's a full laptop lol the only reason to get a surface is to be more portable and get rid of the need of a tablet and laptop
Because most users do not need 16.
Browsing, and maybe office for most, is fine with 8 gb.
As an IT person, I often have to remind myself I am NOT the general audience.
I have a pro 3 i5 8 gb and it runs just fine.
Could it have more zip? Sure. But rarely am I doing work that stresses the system (except Voxelart and sandbox. My pro 3 whines with them).
But most of the stuff I do is fine.
Yeah, the keyboard for pro 8 has carbon fiber base. It's stiffer than any previous keyboards.

I'm hoping (but doubt) they will add the i5/16gb/256 config as that's the one I want.
