Ah yes. I saw the Micrsofts website when they first released it: Microsoft Surface. There are also a couple of bloggers who have dug through the XML code for that site and found some commented out (ignored by the browser) items inside. Here's one such entry: More hidden details on Microsoft Surface website: prior origins, unannounced road show and tech specs - istartedsomething.

As a side note, did anyone catch the interview with Bill Gates and Steve Jobs? It's a seven video series that starts here: VIDEO: Steve Jobs and Bill Gates Together: Part 1 of 7 | D5 | AllThingsD. If you don't have time to watch all seven, be sure to look at the highlight reel: VIDEO: Steve Jobs and Bill Gates Highlight Reel | D5 | AllThingsD.

Cheers!
