I've heard that the Microsoft surface pro is going to be released in January 2013 but does anyone have an exact/approximate date? Because I'm going on a field trip for school to Washington D.C. and would love to buy it before January 25th.

Well, nobody knows release dates or pricing... And who does know will not come here to tell you before doing an official announcement. So, other than complaining about the delay (which i agree with you), what else do you expect from the community?

There have beenn formal announcements regarding the Surface Pro in any countries outside of the USA and Canada. eBay is the only option if there is a seller willing to send it there.
Let us know if this answered your question.
Greetings Sumimasen,
Regarding the release of Surface Pro into the UK, we have released a statement regarding availability.
Regarding the warranty, if you purchase it from the US, the warranty is only valid in the US until the Surface Pro is released in the UK.
In Indonesia, your only option is eBay and hoping that there is a seller willing to ship there. There have been no formal plans to sell in other countries as of yet.
it hasn't been announced for anywhere other than the USA and Canada.
you will have to wait for an official announcement, like everyone else :)
Hello Mario,
We appreciate your excitement for Surface. Unfortunately we do not have any details on market availability and expansion, at this time. I would recommend visiting Surface.com for the latest news and updates.
Best regards.
For a shipment to Spain, your only option is ebay (or a buddy in USA/Canada that can find one and ship to you) and finding a seller willing to ship it there. There are currently NO publicly discussed plans by Microsoft in regards to selling the Surface Pro in other countries besides the USA and Canada.
If you feel this answered your question, please mark as answered. I am also leaving a review shortly at http://crashctrl.com.
Greetings,
Currently the Surface Pro is only available in the United States and Canada.
Hello there!
I just wanted to update you on the latest availability of Surface Pro, as demand is high and we are working as best we can to get more in market.
As of now, additional units have been shipped out in the US to Staples, Best Buy and the Microsoft Store. Another shipment will be made later this week, so customers can expect some units available by end of week. Canada is also following a similar timeline, but may take a few extra days.
We very much appreciate your patience. Please visit our Surface Blog for more details.
No official dates exist. Please wait for the official announcement.
Greetings,
Currently we are working on launch markets and are unable to discuss market expansion at this time.

Surface Pro will be released in January 2013. Yes it will run all old Windows applications since it runs Windows 8 Pro.
Hi Paulo.
Llethander is correct. No official dates have been set for the Launch of Surface with Windows 8 Pro. There is however, an approximate release date for the pro, which is 3 months from when Surface with Windows RT was launched.
Have a nice day.
It is unknown as of yet exactly when the Pro will be released, since Microsoft has not announced a release date, however you should expect to see it some time early in the new year, most likely mid-to-late January.
It is expected to be released 90 days of the Surface RT (which was released on October 25th), so that should give you some ETA.
Hi TimKnight1952,
I'd be happy to help you with your question. I cannot speak to why the Surface with Windows 8 Pro model is not available right now but it is schedule for release in about 3 months.
Please let us know if you have any further questions.

This may help... rumor is MS is having driver issues. I wish companies would just be transparent about stuff like this.
