Today I got a brand new Microsoft Surface RT.
With the touch keyboard this really feels like a small notebook, my only problem is:
How do I sync my OneDrive files to the device? There is OneDrive app installed, but it can't sync, I can only access the files one by one.
And the usual desktop sync program can't be installed since the system is not x86 but ARM instead.
So how do I sync OneDrive to this device??

Quote from Ed Bott
There’s no SkyDrive synchronization. This one surprised me when I first discovered it. If you want to access files stored in your SkyDrive account, you’ll need to do so via a web browser or the built-in Windows 8 app, using a live Internet connection. The Windows desktop app that syncs files between a local drive and SkyDrive isn’t available for Windows RT. (You can open an Office document from SkyDrive, disconnect from the Internet, and continue editing it offline. The Office Upload Center will upload your changes later, when you reconnect.)
This no longer applies. Windows RT 8.1 OneDrive works identically to Windows 8.1.
