800 gm
USB 3.0
Friction Hinge (22-150 degrees)
15-20% more battery life
Fanless
Display output to 4K monitors
Front speakers 40% more powerful
Type covers 40% thinner
Impressive pen capabilites with OneNote

Will be available tomorrow for pre-order

Does anyone see any negatives?
I'll reserve judgement, but I will point out that several of the folks who will likely weigh in on this announcement immediately declared the initial release of the Surface as a winner and then very quickly declared it not a winner.

Marketing hoopla rarely provides the definitive answer on new product success...
