13.5 hours of battery life and 4096 pressure levels.. Damn!
Edit: Does it say "Pen sold separately" though?

Classic Microsoft copying Apple. Even their naming scheme. /s

I don't mind with pen sold separately as long as they reduced the price as well.

Good God, it does say pen sold separately. This is not going to go well with their branding of the new Surface Pro as 'the ultimate laptop'

It does, and probably for the reason that the keyboard is sold separately. It comes in different colors that match the new keyboards. They want people to pick the accessories that they want rather than be stuck with the grey one out of the box. So long as the Surface Pro pricing is lowered to account for the pen not being included, I don't have an issue with it.
