Thinking about getting your hands on a Surface RT, Pro or any Windows 8 or RT device but looking for a good deal to motivate you to make the move? Staples has just the deal for you, now offering $75 off of any Windows 8/RT product.

The Staples coupon was revealed by Slickdeals and has two coupon codes, one for in-store use and another for purchasing online. So what is the catch here? Nothing other than it has an EXTREMELY SHORT expiration date, this Thursday on Valentine’s day. In other words, if this deal sounds tempting, act now before it is too late.

While $75 isn’t exactly a massive fortune, that’s still a sizable chunk of change you can always use towards purchasing a touch cover for the surface or just about anything else really. What do you think, interested in Windows 8 or not?

Wanting to get your hands on a Google Nexus 10 for the holidays? You are not alone, and unfortunately it seems you won’t be able to snag one in time.

The Nexus 10 was listed on Staples site yesterday and has been struck with the sold out curse.  Walmart online is also as of today showing the Nexus 10 as Sold Out.

This leaves us wondering if the initial supply sent to retailers was adequate or were there really just that many people clamoring to get one.  The tablet is also out of stock at the Google Play Store.

This could be seen as good news in forms of an adequate competitor of the Apple iPad.  For consumers, though? This trend of “sold out” status on Nexus items in particular is definitely getting frustrated, and it would seem manufacturers should step up supplies in advance.

Where you one of the lucky few to get a hold of the Nexus 10?

Microsoft has officially confirmed what many of us have been expecting for a very long time, the Microsoft Surface RT is going to finally start expanding to new retail locations.

The Surface RT will start to arrive in new retailers in the US and Australia starting in mid-December and going into 2013. Additionally, several of Microsoft’s pop-up locations are going to be shifted into full retail outlets.

The idea is that Microsoft will be able to capture some last-minute holiday sales this year, and will be a solid position for 1st quarter 2013 sales.

So what stores are getting the Surface RT? We don’t know the full list yet, but Staples has officially spoke up to say that they will carry the tablet in all of its retail locations starting tomorrow, December 12th.
