There is a subset of the Win32 API for Windows Phone 8 but not very many by
the looks.

As I understand the Windows Surface intel is effectively a full  (Intel/x86)
laptop running full Windows 8 with the addition of a full touchscreen.  So 

yes, Delphi apps will run on this, it is a standard Windows 8 PC.   The 

touchscreen will allow touch to do the standard Windows mouse functions,
such as click here, minimise, maximise, put focus in this edit box etc.

Thanks for the replies. I'll wait a while and see what happens.

 

So I need to search for Windows 8 and Intel chipset for compatibility on a
phone.
