Disclaimer: Well this is not an affordable buy product, just amazingly that one of a kind of product that you will just love.
Windows Surface tablet is the latest addition to the tablet wars and to be honest, this is by far the most innovative product of the year.
Firstly, kudos to Microsoft on a job well done. If you could ask if there is any tab that is a total replacement for any generic PC in the market, the answer would be a highly emphatic NO. A tablet until now was an extended Phone or connectivity device, and not too much of a productive device.Microsoft has definitely achieved that thin line between an affordable all Purpose PC and generic tablet (3G needs using a USB Dongle). Two versions are planned to hit the market, tablets with the Windows RT version and Windows 8 Pro.
Hardware:
Both the tablet versions would come in a 10.6" Clear type full HD display. It comes in a vapor magnesium case, dark titanium colors, flip stand (portrait and landscape), 720p HD cameras (front and rear), USB ports, HD output (HD Digital AV adapter). It will support SD cards upto 64 GB, HD out ports as well and will connect to mice, keyboard, printers etc (virtually anything based on WIN RT specs).Windows Apps store would help to provide the needs of the user. Like many android tabs the SIM feature would be unavailable for the current released versions.

SURFACE WINDOWS RT
Well, the lighter and shorter version of the WIN 8 Pro, is powered by an ARM Cortes Processor. comes in either 32/64 gig storage and is lighter. The Windows RT is nothing but (WIN 8 without the desktop option). However a good thing is that it will feature Office and One Note. So it transforms itself into a mostly connectivity and productive device. However from a PC point of view, this would suffice the needs of both the tablet and a netbook (but we will sorely miss the desktop feature for old times sake). Prices are expected to be competitive to iPad Tablets as its better than most tablets in the market.
SURFACE WINDOWS 8 PRO
GeekNxt is very excited for this product. Why? Well for one its rumored to features an Intel iCore 5 (3rd gen processor), Win 8 Pro with the Desktop. It packs a larger battery and is 4mm thicker than the RT version. This version is planned to release with a 64/128 gig storage. This truly supplements the needs of any generic PC. Any enterprise software or applications can be installed in this amazing device
