Just announcing the tablet wasn't enough at that presser a little while ago when. They were missing some valuable information in the press event. Pricing and availability. I hate Apple, but at least when they announce something - they have pricing and availability is usually days to weeks away. There's no ambiguity to their product.

We still don't have definitive pricing, they're missing out on the very important back to school season. I think they missed out on a big opportunity.

That's true, maybe they want to wait and see if Apple do an iPad Mini, and then release around the same time to try and steal some market share from them?

But if/when they do announce and release that - It's going to be available for sale within days and MS is likely to still have a good month long wait.
