Microsoft's Surface 2 Tablet

Just in time for the Christmas shopping season, Microsoft is unveiling its latest tablet upgrade called Surface 2. This is the tablet that will go up against these rivals- Google's Nexus 7 and Apple's iPad Mini.


So what was the last Surface version called? Believe me it wasn't called Surface 1.0,in fact the Surface 2 has two predecessors- the Surface RT and the Surface Pro 2. But the very first one was called the original Surface Pro. Okay now with that out of the way- are we just ready for this new shiny tablet from Microsoft?

Surface 2 is an ARM-based (Tegra 4) tablet with a full HD display. It has a good eight hour run in terms of battery juice and it will run on the new Microsoft's Windows RT 8.1 OS.
Rumor has it, the tablet will be out October 22 right after the release of Windows 8.1
