Ships in about 3 weeks. Looks like a competitor to the Kindle Fire more than anything else.

Could not resist though. I needed a small tablet for work so I pre-ordered one. Will post my impression when I get it.

Looks like it kicks the Kindle Fire's a$$! No doubt a 10" is coming soon after this one. Just hope MS is smart enough to make sure at least one of their devices is SHIPPING by Thanksgiving.

Good point Mike. If M$ blinks just one little bit, its the Nexus for me.

Not sure these are competing in the exact same space. Hoping the Surface is a bit more powerful and flexible than the Nexus. I am looking forward to playing around withe the Nexus but the end game is a still a more flexible tablet. The nexus will be a great reader/email/internet device but I want more from a tablet for the long run.
