I think on a screen 720p that Surface RT does is more than enough.

But more importantly, Ipad still has the same browser issues, still no Keyboard/cover attachment and no true multitasking.
Windows RT offers the real full internet wheres IPAD 4 still only uses the mobile website stuff. Lots of videos for example dont play on an Ipad 4.

No USB is also an annoying issue.

These things matter alot more than a few better specs. Stuff that really changes what a tablet is.

Is not having a keyboard/cover that big a deal? I use the Smart Cover on my iPad all the time. When I'd like to type something up I have a small Bluetooth keyboard that I use. It works for all of my bluetooth devices as well, including my phone. I guess if you really want the keyboard to attach on you can get something like the Logitech ultra thin keyboard. 

The only videos that don't play are flash ones afaik. Still waiting on the YouTube iPad app from google (the old,not very good, app was axed in ios6), but that shouldn't take too long. You can always use the iPhone app for now or just watch videos from the YouTube website directly so it's not a problem.

Its all convienience. You dont have to charge the keyboard on Surface RT. It stays attached and acts as a cover if you want it to. You dont have to carry someting else with you. The apps for youtube do not have all the videos. In fact alot are missing. I have lost count of ow many times Ive gone to show a friend on his Ipone or Ipad and not been able to because it doesnt even appear on the app.
