I know this is kind of trivial but does the trackpad on the type covers seem to wear quickly for you folks? I know that over time, some trackpads and keys on keyboards develop shiny spots where they wear down. I had a type cover on my Surface when I bought it on launch day and used it for a week and it already showed a shiny worn spot on the trackpad that couldn't be cleaned off. I had problems with the type cover not responding occasionally so Microsoft swapped it out for a new one and same thing after only about another couple weeks of use. not a big deal ri'now but it makes me wonder what this thing'll look like after a year or so. seeing other Surface's on display since showed they all looked noticeably worn. I have a Macbook that's about 3 years old and it looks almost completely new except for some very subtle wear on the spacebar that's not nearly as noticeable as on the type cover's trackpad after only a couple weeks. my hands are always pretty clean using my computers and I wipe them down about once a week so keeping them clean isn't the problem. anyone else notice?
