The new 256GB iteration will premiere on shelves there for 119,800 yen ($1,175), and customers there will be able to adorn it with the Touch Cover for 9,980 yen ($100) and tactile key Type Cover for 10,980 yen ($110).

I like the concept of the Surface, but 128 is not enough, even with the 64 flash card.....if the 256 ever comes out in the USA, I'll buy 2 right away! One for myself and one for my wife!
