    Merging the Surface Pro and the Surface Book

    I at least hope they make a powered keyboard again. my SP2 with that keyboard has a GREAT battery life. my SP4 just has an ok battery life. I would LOVE to have a power base like the books have on my surface pro. without the full tablet, I feel the book isn't what I want.
