If you think it's too expensive, the simple answer would seem to be to buy one of the alternatives.
I bought my Surface from a Microsoft Store in the US on a trip there. The store had lots of different Windows 8 laptops, ultrabooks, pure tablets, and convertible tablets on display. I looked at them all, but decided that the Surface Pro was the one for me. It wasn't the cheapest (there were a number of Intel Atom-based devices available for rather less), but it certainly wasn't the most expensive, either. I'd class it as mid-priced for devices in that category.
