Pictures of Microsoft Surface phone outed by Redmond crew?

Microsoft recently decided to promote its new Microsoft Surface tablets by snapping a couple of pictures of Surface users hard at work with the tablet in front of them. But off to the side in both pictures is a phone that looks a little different than any model that has appeared before our eyes before. What we are saying is that this could be the Microsoft Surface phone, a model of which is allegedly being holed up in Studio H at Microsoft's Redmond campus.

This obviously is a prototype and might not even be the final design of a Microsoft Surface phone, but if this is where the company is heading with the device, it certainly looks much nicer than other mythical creatures like Bigfoot, the Abominable Snowman and a friendly New Yorker. Meanwhile, the last we've heard is that the Microsoft Surface phone could be in the market by next summer.
