Microsoft Says New Version of Surface May Be Larger

In an interview with Matt Champagne, Microsoft Surface’s director of product management, it was revealed that larger size surface screens are under consideration.

"We are looking at a 46-inch model to complement the 30-inch version we already have," Champagne told Pocket-lint.

The current screen size is 30" (diagonal) so a 46" screen would be over 150% larger. And while Microsoft has had requests for even larger screens Champagne told Pocket-lint, "We are unlikely to go beyond 50-inches or 60-inches as in doing so changes the dynamic too much."

Personally, I would love to see have access to a larger Surface screen as I find the current size is sometimes pretty limiting.
