Microsoft CEO Nadella expected to preside over New York City Surface Mini rollout
Summary: Microsoft looks to be taking the covers off its long-rumored Surface Mini tablet on May 20 in New York City.
Microsoft just sent a number of us media folks invitations to 'a small gathering' on May 20 in New York City.
The invitation, emailed on May 5, says it is for a 'Surface event' and will kick off at 11 a.m. ET.
CEO Satya Nadella will be officiating, according to my sources.
Given the timing, my guess is this is likely to be the introduction of Microsoft's long-rumored Surface Mini tablet. Previous leaks have indicated the Surface Mini will be a 7- to 8-inch tablet that will come equipped with a stylus.
A recent leak by a case maker on Amazon.com indicated that the Surface Mini might be available (or at least announced) by May 18.
There's still a lot we don't know about the Surface Mini, including pricing, distribution plans and even whether the tablet will be powered by an Intel or ARM processor. However, original leaks about the Surface Mini pegged it as an ARM-based device running Windows RT.
