Microsoft Surface Pro goes on sale first at Best Buy

Microsoft has been discussing the price and release date of its newest edition to its "Surface" series, the Surface Pro, since late November, and now that date is now quickly approaching: February 9th. The location? Best Buy at Union Square in New York City.

The price for a 64GB Windows 8 Surface Pro will be $899, and the 128GB will be priced at $999 -- but, unfortunately, neither will come with the mechanical keyword attachment. The Surface Pro will weigh half a pound more than the regular Surface, and 2GB more of RAM.

If you're interested in getting one, you may have to wait even longer than February 9th, since the Best Buy at Union Square in NYC is the only store announced to release the Pro on that date. We may need to wait a bit longer to get them elsewhere, unless you can pick one up on the web. We'll see!
