Closest thing to a SP2 Appears to be a Dell Venue 11 Pro 7000 series
You can get it with i5 Y series, 4gb ram, 128gb storage, 10.8 screen.

The Surface MINI had the same 3:2 Aspect Ratio, used the same N-trig Digitizer and was a RT machine. RT is not dead as an ideal, it as predicted being merged with Windows Phone and x86 SST to create a Modern UI only version of Windows 10, preview is expected in late January to February.

The Rumored Surface 3 if it ships in time for the Holiday Shopping Season will be designed for Windows 10 in mind.

I would be happy to see a Surface 3.

I've been checking the opposition and the SP3 (if SP2 really have gone for ever) is starting to look reasonable. Lenovo offering a Yoga thing with base win8.1 and an Atom (?? DUH) for 700-bucks. By the time you add another hundred for Win8.1-Pro (I need Hyper-V) the SP3 is starting to look low cost. :)

Still think SP3 is too big though. Hell, played with an S-RT yesterday and it feels huge compared to my 8" Miix. But then, the Miix is too small as finger taps get really frustrating. Even using a fat capacitive stylus, not much better. I like/need that 10" base size, perfect for my daily use.
