As the harbinger of a new line and class of Microsoft hardware, I didn’t expect much as far as add-ons and accessories were concerned.
However, it is now enough time for stuff to start showing up.
But, nothing.
Nothing!
Apart from a sleeve and a screen protector, there’s nothing more on Surface.com
There are SkinIT skins available off the site online somewhere, but that’s it.
I’ve had it on my mind since yesterday when I was looking to purchase a carrying case for Wifey’s Surface Pro. (Personally, I use a CaseLogic iPad case I repurposed for my Surface Pro.)
I found nothing.
Nothing at all!
Pondering over it since then, I have to ask: why Microsoft isn’t showing any passion around Surface?
Seriously, I don’t see any passion!
As with Windows 8, Microsoft execs are mouthing off
As important as Surface is to the fortunes of Microsoft’s future PC hardware business, why nothing?
Why didn’t Microsoft commission several accessories in order to make a great splash?
Or is Surface another Microsoft trial balloon?
If it is, I don’t want to be another guinea pig with my own money!
Resultantly, I have halted all purchases of Surface until I see the signs of life regarding Surface from Microsoft.
