http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2013/05/surface-pro-japan-05-29-13-01_620x340.jpgIn a move that should surprise few, that August price cut for Microsoft's Surface Pro (http://www.engadget.com/2013/08/04/microsoft-slashes-surface-pro-price-for-the-month-of-august-64g/) -- which now starts at $799 for the 64GB version -- will remain in effect permanently.WPCentral has also revealed a $40 discount on Touch Covers, that now start at $79, and $50 off of the Surface RT tablet / touch cover bundle that starts at $399. The bundle pricing should kick in today although we're not seeing it live on the Microsoft Store yet. According to a statement from Microsoft (included after the break) this is based on customer's "exciting" response to the recent price drops. So, is this enough of a push for you to grab a slate (or two) right now, or would you rather wait for thesequel (http://www.engadget.com/2013/08/08/nvidia-jen-hsun-huang-microsoft-surface-2/)?
