i5, 128gb w/black cover. I was on the fence as I already have a Surface Pro 1st gen. But I waited on the Surface Pro 2 because of the lack of form factor change. And now with the 3rd Generation, I'll have;
Slightly Faster Processor (Identical to the i5 in the latest Surface Pro 2)
Slightly Faster Video (Identical to the i5 in the latest Surface Pro 2)
Back Lit, LED Keyboard
Larger Screen
Larger Resolution
Better Keyboard Design
Better Kickstand Design
Longer Battery Life
Higher Quality Cameras
Improved (to each his own), Pen Design.
So it made it worth the upgrade I think. I just couldn't justify a i7 when its still a dual core as the i5.
What I want to know, is will these have release day delivery on Friday June 20th? They only offer one option for Standard Ground Shipping on the Microsoft Store.
