Looks exciting. Should come with the general availability of Windows 8. Also, it's going to have specs for ARM and x86

We'll see how it goes. I'm really interested in trying one out when it's available.

I might buy one with the keyboard case. Looks like a good deal with WinRT.

The cover is definitely something very innovative. Too bad it's an extra $100 to tack on

Classic media BS, the Surface will do just fine with Windows 8 - see what they said when the Xbox first came out...

I think the problem with most of these reviews is that they are evaluating how good the Surface is based on how well it performs as an iPad. I think the metrics are just wrong -- the Surface is an entire league of its own.
