We’ve all seen pics of the Surface. Now (from c|net) pictures and some specs on the W8 phone:

There are a bunch of pics and a vid on the c|net site.

Features:

• Multicore – will support up to 64 core processors… but definitely will support dual and quad cores.
• Three new screen resolutions – WVGA (800x480), WXVGA (1280x768) and “true 720p” (1280x720p)
• Will share code with desktop ie10 and the browsers will be very similar. It will be very secure, such as reputation based phishing detector and SmartScreen Filter.
• Will support MicroSD cards therefore will get a 16, 32, or perhaps 64GB of extra memory, as well as another way to transfer data.
• New scree – entirely occupied by tiles of 3 sizes (depending on the app)… of which MS states currently more than 100,000.
• Customization – tile colors and themes.
• No upgrade of W7 to W8 phone OS will be possible (they want to sell stuff, right?).
• NFC and mobile wallet – will have, and Chase will be a partner.
• W8 phone and desktop/Surface will share W8 code for devs.
• Seamless Skype, in app purchases, W8 desktop security level, development in C and C++.
