Halloween is almost upon us, so we're doing a spooky-themed unboxing of Microsoft's game-changing tablet hardware for Windows 8.
We got our hands on Microsoft's Surface RT tablet along with a bunch of accessories. We'll be putting it through our usual review process, but first we figured that you may want to get a first glimpse at how things look out of the box.
Check out the video below for Jane's unboxing of the 64 GB Windows 8 Surface RT tablet, along with some very colorful covers.
UPDATE: Check out our hands-on impressions here!

Lol, french maid sounds good. :D
Anyway, device looks awesome; can't wait for full review. -
fudoka711 Gotta say the tablet just LOOKS nice and the touch/type cover was a great idea to implement. Can't wait for the review.Reply -
house70 Looks good of a device.Reply
The whole unboxing video could use some polish. I've seen well done videos on Android Central, xda-Developers and other sites. Could use some inspiration from there. Esp. the audio quality (non-existent).
Thanks for the video, this is the first that I get to see of this Surface thing. Might get one. -
boiler1990 I'm dying for the Pro version. The one thing I hated about my iPad was that I couldn't even take notes on it - the Surface gives me that, and has even made it better with the proximity-aware stylus.Reply
