If Microsoft does plan to release a consumption-oriented Surface Mini, executives did a good job during Monday's Surface 2 unveiling of keeping it under wraps.
Cyril Belikoff, director of the Surface for Microsoft, declined to comment when asked repeatedly about whether Microsoft planned to release a smaller version of the Surface tablet, geared toward content consumption, rather than productivity.
"I didn't allude to that or anything at all," he said, when asked if Microsoft would either build a smaller Surface, or, conversely, cede that role to its hardware partners.
"Surface is really a great consumer tablet," Belikoff said. "There are many consumers who buy Surface RT and are loving the Surface or will continue to love the Surface 2. Same with the Pro. Surface Pro is great for businesses, and individual professionals, who love Surface Pro. Surface Pro and Surface Pro 2 are great for consumers, for businesses, and large enterprises."
