`As hard as it is to believe, Microsoft has until now never put out a 3G/4G Surface tablet. But we
`knew one would come eventually: the company said it was working on an LTE-enabled Surface 2
`and indeed, the thing recently surfaced (har) in FCC documents. Now it's finally here: Microsoft just
`announced that the LTE Surface 2 will go on sale tomorrow, and will be compatible on AT&T's 4G
`network here in the US. (Fun fact: its official name is literally "Surface 2 (AT&T 4G LTE)".) All told, it'll
`sell for $679 with 64GB of built-in storage. That's a $130 premium over the 64GB WiFi-only model
`which, if you're paying attention, is the same premium you'd pay for a cellular iPad over a WiFi one
`(it's worth noting, however, that the 4G Surface 2 is considerably less expensive).

`Happily, the Surface 2 comes free of any contractual agreements. The big catch, of course, is that
`you'll need an AT&T micro-SIM: the tablet supports LTE bands 4, 7 and 17, along with 3G UTMS
`(bands 1, 2 and 5) and regular old GSM (800/900/1800/1900MHz). In theory, that also means you
`should be able to get away with using a T-Mobile SIM, since T-Mobile also uses LTE 4 and
`1900MHz 3G. T-Mo isn't officially supported, though, so don't expect anything in the way of
`possible bug fixes or performance enhancements. Either way, what's nice is that even with the LTE,
`the tablet promises the same battery life (up to 10 hours) and basically weighs the same as it did
`before.
`
`In any case, you can find the Surface 2 with LTE tomorrow at Microsoft Stores, MicrosoftStore.com
`and Best Buy (but not AT&T stores, oddly). Oh, and all those promotions Microsoft was offering
`back when the Surface 2 first launched? They still apply five months later on this LTE version. That
`means you can expect 200GB of free OneDrive storage for two years and a year of unlimited Skype
`WiFi calling and landline calls.

`The thing I don't get is why people always compare the Surface to iPad. Yes Surface is
`trying to squeeze in the space between ultra books and tablets but to me the more
`appropriate competition should be Surface Pro vs Macbook Air. Both are productivity
`devices first and foremost
