A few of the shops back home (NE Iowa) have been in love with them for 3+ years now. One of them (Decorah Bicycles) has started a fatbike rental fleet they love them so much! I moved away right before they got it up and running, but if I go back to visit, I'm tempted to try one out for the day, even if I bring my bike. They currently have Trek, Surly, and Specialized fatbikes available.
The Salsa Bucksaw has definitely caught my attention!

I guess some of the bigger companies are thinking fat bikes are just going to be a second or third bike for consumers. But after riding high-end fat bikes (like the Bucksaw), I beg to differ! Fat bikes will be primary rigs for many riders so it's time to really put some thought into these designs rather than just rolling out rigid bike with fat tires slapped on them to meet a reasonable price point.

Still, I'm inclined to agree with you... it'll be interesting to see how this shakes out, and if some companies will try to do BOTH all-year and winter-specific.
