Read some press releases from last year discussing a rikon 10-350 that should have been out by now but I can't find any real details or reviews yet...is the launch delayed or perhaps the price strategy being tweaked???

From what I have seen of features and price the Laguna LT14SUV seems to make a lot more sense.

That is the one.

My hope is that there is a solid difference between msrp and street price...but the laguna has a built in mobile base so that is worth $75 or so.

I would hope so to but Rikon outside sales tens to sell what what they list as MSRP, but who knows. Even if they go on sale like the other saws at Woodcraft the Laguna saws also go on sale or come with extras on a regular bases. It certainly has some nice features but the Laguna has even more for $100 more if the pricing of the Rikon holds.
