While the gift card can be used to buy anything Microsoft has in its store locations, the company clearly wants people to consider using the card to buy a Surface tablet. With the recent price cuts in both the Surface RT and Surface Pro versions, people who have been waiting to buy one of Microsoft's own tablets who already own an iPad just got another reason to take the plunge. Of course, Microsoft could also launch its rumored next-generation Surface tablets before the iPad trading period ends, which would make buying those new products with a $200 gift card even more of an enticement.
