Rumor: 8" Surface RT to be announced in June

[EBynum]

According to an article in DigiTimes, "Microsoft is ready to announce its second-generation Surface RT tablet with an 8-inch display in June with an estimated price between US$249-299, according to sources from the upstream supply chain." Could this be true?

While not impossible, I find it hard to trust anything from Digitimes. They literally report any and everywhere rumor, so they're right sometimes, but wrong so many other times.

If so, I'm getting one.

I'll buy one as well if they make them. I love my Surface RT.

You think the rumoured price tag will knock the Surface RT a little?

How could 8" RT devices compete with similarly priced full 8.1 devices that are already out? Maybe if they include a keyboard.

I would think it would be announced and released before June.
