I carefully watched Massimo Banzi's presentation he personally gave May 19th, 2012, at Maker Faire (link below). I paid extra attention to the topic related to the 32-Bit "Due" and I heard two very important points: 1) the "Due" will be out some time in June, and 2) the price will be cheaper than a Mega (retails $65 USD at adafruit.com).
The Due is almost 3 months late assuming Banzi meant June 2012 and not 2013. I don't have a problem with Arduino keeping their product lines and release dates close to their chest. But if you make a public announcement, as was done in two Maker Faires, and you announce a release date, then it becomes a commitment and commitments must be honored. Missing a commitment is not serious if an explanation is issued. The Arduino founders and product lines are the best, and frankly, inspirational. I see Banzi as the Steve Jobs of open source microcontrollers. I'm sure one of the founders will do the right thing and give the Arduino community an update. Thank you.
