Pegatron named as Microsoft Surface fondleslab foundry • The Register

A very big couple weeks for Asus, if accurate; Pegatron is an Asus spin-off, and Asus is also expected to be the manufacturer for the Google Nexus tablet to be unveiled next week at Google I/O 2012

"According to DigiTimes, Pegatron will be building both the Intel and ARM versions of the fondleslab, with the Ivy Bridge-powered slab going for around $799 (Intel's guide price for Ultrabooks) with a $599 alternative for the Tegra 3 system.
Microsoft didn’t give pricing details at its launch on Monday, but indicated the Ultrabook as a guide price, and sources said Microsoft isn't planning on making a massive margin on the tablets."
