Microsoft is ready to take the Surface Pro tablet to the UK starting with May 23rd and they’ve just confirmed that today. The product will debut in about a week, with a price tag of about 719 quid, pretty steep for any tablet buyer out there.
The Core i5 based tablet will be available via the Microsoft online store from the mentioned date and the price tag mentioned above applies for the 64 GB model.

The Surface tablets are famous for their magnesium case, trademark kickstand with 22 degree opening angle and their widescreen displays with 16:9 aspect ratio and high definition.
