Microsoft Surface RT priced at $499 or $599 with Touch Cover keyboard

Microsoft finally names its Surface price

RIP Kindle DX

For instance, the world’s physically lightest and best-quality color e-reader display, which is under development at HP, uses the same techniques that octopuses do when camouflaging themselves or showing off during mating displays. Like the displays on black-and-white E Ink readers available today, the new display isn’t backlit and it uses much less energy than backlit tablet or smartphone screens. The quality of color it produces is on par with print newspaper.
