Microsoft's Surface Pro heads to stores in a few weeks

[bobito]

The expected full Windows 8 tablet will hit the stores in two weeks.

The Surface Pro has a Core i5 or Core i7 Intel processor and either 64GB or 128GB of onboard storage, starting at $899 ($999 for the 128GB version). Unlike some Surface RT bundles, the Surface Pro doesn't come with a Type Cover or Touch Cover -- those are sold separately at $130 and $120, respectively. It does come with a pressure-sensitive Surface Pen stylus with palm-rejection technology that magnetically clips to the charging port. Add in a Type Cover (incredibly useful but not essential if you have your own keyboard and mouse) and the Surface Pro will effectively start at $1,029.

By february 9th, the surface pro will be available in US retail stores and parts of Canada.
