LOL, so the next Nexus, iPad Mini, and Samsung tablets can eat it's lunch... How about innovating something disruptive and bringing it to market... They did it with Windows a zillion years ago... sigh

I just want a surface pro 2 with better specs + cheaper price.

Microflacid really needs to invest HEAVILY into a gesture interface company, and holography tech. Windows 8 is so painfully made for gesture interface, but the hardware doesn't exist yet. Bring me minority report interface windows 8.1, and restore the desktop for non touch systems.

Selling a $500 7" tablet is not going to win them any customers. No more "Me too!" tech.

What did Tom's do to the comments section?

Another Tablet flop for Microsoft in a 7" size this time. How much damage does this CEO Moron have to do to the company and the industry before he is fired? Anyone else would have been tarred and feathered and run out on a rail years ago. We should all stop buying any MS products until they fire his ass.

Hi Toms, your comment section is all f*ed up! I tried to report spam and it says "Don't have permissions" I tried commenting on another article and the same error message... This site keeps getting worse

I like the Surface Pro a lot but not at their high price. Needs to come down in price quite a bit to get me to buy it

This needs to be really cheap. It should sell for no more than $250. Otherwise, it's once again a guaranteed failure.

LOL, no thanks MS and with STEAM on Linux now and OS X now I see a day when their will be none of your software in my house since I only use Windows 7 to game with.

The surface killed itself for a lot of reasons, but the main one was price, so if this isn't cheaper, they're screwed.

@STravis They Destroyed it. This is too little too late. If they want to beat out the cheaper Android based ones (Google and Amazon) and the high priced iPad mini, they need to be very competitive. $199 US or don't bother.

Awesome! Now I can experience a really crappy OS in a new form factor!

They should call it "Surface Zune".
