We saw the Surface V2 (as they’re calling it) soft-launched at the press day before CES, then demonstrated briefly by Ballmer in his keynote, and at last given official status with

pictures and all the next morning. And then we got the the chance to try it out in person at the Microsoft booth. We’ve got video, some hands-on pictures, and our first impressions of the device.

One thing I should make clear right away, which is of course slightly disappointing, is that this is definitely not a consumer device. It’s too expensive and development is very much aimed at commercial deployment. That said, they hope to make the devices ubiquitous enough that having one at home would be redundant. You may form your own opinion of that strategy.
