Microsoft Surface ads can be seen in several locations across the United States, but New York is one lucky city: not only will it host the official debut of Windows 8, but it also got the biggest tablet ad ever seen so far.

Although it's not quite a sign that Microsoft also plans to introduce the Surface tablet at the New York press conference on October 25, the latest rumors in the industry suggest that this will actually happen.

The Redmond-based firm hasn't yet commented on the official launch date of the tablet, but given the fact that it features the brand new Windows 8, an official unveiling during the October event pretty much makes sense.

Getting back to the advertisement, it was published on Instagram by user “mazinadjm” and there's nothing special with it, aside from the fact that it's placed on a residential building and it's indeed bigger than any other Surface ad spotted so far.
