New ad for the Surface Pro 4 shows how NFL stars employ the slate
Even if NFL announcers occasionally call it an Apple iPad, the Microsoft Surface Pro is already considered 'must-have' equipment for all 32 NFL teams. They are used to take photos of the opponent's offensive and defensive sets, looking for holes. In the olden days, NFL teams used Polaroid pictures taken from the press box to do the same thing.
We do have a couple of things to point out. The case that the tablet is wearing is a special impact absorbing one made for the Surface Pro models used by the NFL. This allows the tablet to take a huge hit and keep on working. It is not available for the public to buy. However, what fans can purchase is an NFL Type Cover featuring the logo of any one of the 32 NFL teams. Microsoft currently has a deal that takes $100 off the price of a Surface Pro 4 purchased at the same time as a Type Cover, including the NFL version. That deal expires on October 9th.
