Meh, every time they delay, the more opaque they are about price and availability and future product lineup (Surface 3, non-pro edition), the more likely I am to buy another tablet - possibly not a Windows one, however much I like them.
At the moment, I want a second tablet for September. The primary function of my second tablet is going to be for having documents up for citations while I'm working on my first tablet - a two monitor setup for on the go, much like I have in my home setup. While I love Windows tablets and the Surface line in general for a variety of reasons, since I'm currently under the impression none of these things will be under $350'ish, I may well opt for just picking up some $100 8 inch Android tablet and make do with it and keep a bit of money in my pocket. Tell us what the heck you are releasing in non-pro tablets already, and when - otherwise, you may well find some of us just moving on. Right now, $450 for a Surface 2 isn't worth it to me, and I want something with more horsepower than my current Surface RT if I'm going to spend $350+. The new kickstand and a digitizer make it worth it - but I don't know if such a product will even exist outside of the Pro model.

I have never seen the need for the Surface RT, if I want a consumer content toy I will have an Android tablet and I do. The Lenovo S6000 does me a treat, from being an in-car cinema for the kids, remote access tool on teamviewer for my file server, casual games, facebook, etc. However, I still want a Surface Pro 3, with that I can really get proper work done. If playing with it doesn't seem too arduous i will dump the android tablet and give it to the kids because it can already do everything that it can do.
