Microsoft just released a Windows 8 Tablet of its own called Surface. The new tablet has two versions, the light version will run Windows 8 RT on an ARM processor (we saw that coming) while the other is a Pro version running on Intel processor. Surface will feature an all magnesium case that weighs 1.5 pounds and a 10.6 full HD display (covered in Gorilla Glass 2).

The tablet has its own kickstand and I/O options include HDMI-out, microUSB and a USB 2.0 port It will feature a MagSafe-like magnetic cover that also doules as a keybaord and multi-touch trackpad. Surface will also have either 32GB or 64GB of storage space.  Seems like it has rear and front facing cameras as well.
