Microst unveils Surface tablets, Is this the answer to IPAD?

Microsoft unveils 'Surface' tablet with Windows RT: Microsoft has unveiled Surface, a tablet computer to compete with Apple's iPad.
Microsoft Surface is a line of tablet ultra-portable PCs designed to work with Windows RT and Windows 8 operating systems.

Different versions will be available featuring ARM and Intel CPUs and the display is a 10.6", 16:9 widescreen HD Display (RT version) or Full  HD Display (Pro version).
The 'Type cover', a magnetic case complete with a multitouch keyboard and a trackpad, was also unveiled at the Los Angeles announcement.
"For the CPUs, the Surface with Windows RT will use an Nvidia ARM CPU, which most likely means a quad core Tegra 3 chip, like you'll find in the Asus Transformer Pro TF300. On the Windows 8 Pro Surface, Microsoft confirmed a full-fledged third generation "Ivy Bridge" Core i5 quad core chip like the chips in current Windows laptops." As of this moment, no pricing or release date is available.
