Microsoft reveals iPad-like Windows 8 based ‘Surface Tablet’



Today, Microsoft finally unveiled its tablet line up tagged ‘Surface Tablets ’at a secret location in Los Angeles, to compete with its rival – Apple. The tablets have been introduced in two models, one with Intel-based processor that will run the full version of Windows 8 including the Windows 7 portion, and the other with an ARM-based processor that will run Windows RT - the Metro-only version of Windows 8.

The tablets look much like an iPad due to similarities in the size, shape and weight. They will also contain a cover similar to iPad's Smart Case, but the cover will include a touch keyboard when folded out.
Rumors are circulating around, that the Surface Tablets will be available by the fall of this year. But it’s too early to say anything regarding shipment date and pricing structure until Microsoft declares it!
