Did Microsoft Just Buy Another Tablet Launch?

Nokia's (NYSE: NOK  ) rumored "Sirius" tablet was expected to launch as early as this month, just as Microsoft  (NASDAQ: MSFT  ) is likely preparing to launch two new Surface models in the near term. That would potentially mean Microsoft effectively has three tablets about to be launched.
