Swimming in a live-stream
Microsoft is planning to unveil new hardware during a special press event tomorrow in New York City, though you won't have to attend in person to see it go down. Instead, you can sit at home in your skivvies and watch the announcements through a live-stream.
The event kicks off at 10 AM Eastern. You can bookmark this link to watch it and see what "exciting news" Microsoft has "to share about Windows 10 devices." Rumor has it Microsoft will unveil a Surface Pro 4 tablet, new flagship Lumia handsets, and a second generation fitness wearable (Microsoft Band 2).
Microsoft's next Surface device will see a new field of contenders that include Apple with its recently announced 12.9-inch iPad Pro and Google with its 10.1-inch Pixel C. All three should be available to purchase in time for the holiday shopping season.
As for the second generation fitness wearable, leaked images purporting to be press renderings show a redesigned Band with a curved display, metal accents, and physical buttons on the side. The current Band features a flat display on top with no metal accents and can be found on sale for just $100.
If you don't care about having the latest and greatest hardware, now is a good time to shop. In addition to half-price Microsoft Bands, the Surface Pro 3 family is on sale in the Microsoft Store, presumably to clear out old inventory and make room for the new.
