The current Surface tablets have 10.6-inch displays, which nobody else in the industry use, so Microsoft is not new to unique sizes for their devices.
Earlier this year, developer tools for Windows 8.1 referenced 7.5-inch tablets with a 4:3 aspect ratio and 1440x1080 resolution.
The device is expected to go into mass production later this year for a 2014 release.
