Samsung

Yesterday at the National Retail Federation (NRF) conference in New York – Samsung announced that the SUR40 for Microsoft Surface is now available and shipping to customers! At CES 2011, we first unveiled Microsoft Surface 2.0 in partnership with Samsung with the SUR40.

Windows Phone had a fantastic week last week at CES. 2 new 4G LTE-enabled Windows Phones were announced for AT&T: the HTC Titan II and Nokia Lumia 900.

CES 2012 is taking place right now in Las Vegas and many of our OEMs are showing off really awesome PCs – some available right now and others that will hit the market soon. In a 2-part video series, we stopped by and visited some of our OEMs on the showroom floor at CES to get a peek at their PCs! Check out video #1 below!

The following PCs were highlighted in the video:

Holiday deal alert! Starting Sunday, the Samsung Focus Flash will be available from AT&T for just 99 cents (with a 2-year contract).

So if you’ve been looking for an excuse to check out Windows Phone 7.5—just named one of 2011’s top tech products by PC World and Slate—now’s your chance.

Tomorrow, I’ll be joining Tech Tuesday’s Live Twitter Chat from 30,000 feet as I fly to St. Thomas for an upcoming press trip. On this trip, I’ll be bringing one of the most beautiful laptops I’ve ever seen – an as of yet unreleased midnight blue and crystal PC from Samsung. It’s just one of the reasons I’m so thrilled to have Samsung joining us for this week’s #win7tech. Plus, we’ll be giving away a Samsung Series 7 15” PC running Windows 7.

It’s Black Friday and everyone is out kick-starting their holiday shopping. I thought I would take a break from my own shopping to highlight some pretty slick Black Friday deals from Microsoft. We’ve got some pretty awesome deals going on for Windows Phones, Xboxes, Windows PCs and more – just check out this slideshow on Microsoft News Center for all the details.
