Microsoft last week answered more questions about its upcoming Surface with Windows 8 Pro (Surface Pro) tablet, but also left out a few essential details as we approach the device’s January debut.
We know the Surface Pro will be available with a storage choice of 64GB (for $900) and 128GB ($1000). Microsoft’s tablet will come loaded with an Ivy Bridge Core i5 processor, 10.6-inch screen with 1920 by 1080 resolution, 4GB RAM, front- and rear-facing cameras, one USB 3.0 slot, a microSDXC card slot, a miniDisplayPort, 802.11a/b/g/n Wi-Fi support, Bluetooth 4.0, and, of course, Windows 8 Pro.
A free digital pen comes with your Surface Pro, but an external keyboard such as the Touch Cover or Type Cover will cost extra, as with the Surface RT. The new tablet also lacks GPS and cellular connectivity.
If you don’t mind the price, the Surface Pro sounds like it could be a good tablet; but a number of questions remain.
