Watching CNN for election results and they're cruising with Microsoft Surface apps which are pretty damn impressive.

Any idea when we get our hands on this for regular business/home use? I saw the video from a year or 2 ago when they first announced it, but hadn't heard about it since.

I imagine programming for it would be a blast.

Which came first? They pretty much look to act the same and allow the same interactions. Either way i want to take a peek in the SDK's
