That means that this $130 accessory cannot be used with the next generation of device.
Ok, apparently that is no big deal to people. But when Microsoft fails to gain traction in the marketplace try considering that things like this contribute to that rather than dismiss it all as, "an Apple-loving press not giving Microsoft a fair shake".

I pointed this out twice but I'll do it again. We don't know that the 10" form factor is going away. Until it does, you really don't have anything to complain about. You can still buy a brand new Surface 2 and use your keyboard on it. It's not an outdated product by any means.
I just don't understand that "don't change or improve anything" mentality. Not even Apple fully subscribes to that.
As I've said before, the price is too high on the keyboards. But we accepted that cost as a worthwhile value when we bought them.
