Please wait. The Surface Pro 4 is coming out soon after Windows 10 launch and will also most probably come with a USB type C connector for charging and plugging peripherals. USB-C is the port of the future. That alone is a very good reason to wait. If you are lucky it will also come with Intel's Skylake processors which should be a significant performance boost.

Had not heard this... is that "industry speculation" or has microsoft announced this?
I know USB-C is "the future" but last I heard there were still some manufacturers pushing back on the USB-C standard. Of course this was a while back - so maybe that all got resolved?
The Skylake processor alone isn't really significant to me vs. the i7. However, the USB-C is a huge factor. Especially with a device with so little storage space. Grap a couple of high capacity USB-C thumb drives and you're good to go. USB 3.0 is extremely fast... I think I read that USB-C is at minimum twice as fast as 3.0.
