The first-generation Surface 64GB is available from the Microsoft Store for just $249 in a special Memorial Day promotion, while a black Touch Cover can be added to the package for only $30 more



From Neowin:

But not everyone can afford to splash out on such a device, of course, no matter how much they might want it. So for those shopping for a tablet on a more modest budget, Microsoft is no doubt hoping that its Memorial Day promotion will be a deal to remember.

This weekend, the Microsoft Store is selling its original Surface 64GB for just $249 - that's a saving of $200 on the tablet's standard price. For $279, you'll get the same tablet plus a black Touch Cover, which equates to a $220 discount on regular pricing.
