If the battery size is 4200mAh (I think). Why is it I can't plug in a mophie 6000mAh battery pack into the USB port and charge the tablet when not in use?
surface pro 2- usb charging

This is a concequence of Micrsofts less then informing marketing, the Pro versions of surface can't truly be categorized as a tablet, and is more of an ultrabook.
But it would be nice for consumers if a laptop charger standard was enforced, like the USB charging standard. Hopefully the EU or the industry itself might come with this consumer friendly standard in the near future.

The Surface Pro is a convertible system.
It competes with those devices:
It is not a tablet per se.

Despite all that, I still think tablet is a valid moniker. I sometimes refer to it as a tablet, but also sometimes as a laptop (just easier when fielding work queries).
My wife calls it a fandangle

Yes, but the positioning and value proposition is around the fact it is more than a tablet, it is a Surface....

I believe this is common if you are using the Surface line of products out of US. It needs proper grounding and in countries where the ground wiring is not integrated into both pins (just guessing, I am not an electrical engineer) . If this happens, simply flip the plug and the static sensation should go-away. I am under the belief that a static current always passing through components is not good for its long life. So better take care.
