Well it's not for people who want maximum multithreaded performance. And AVX/HT are practically useless with current applications anyways. If they sell it at the same price as the current lineup I think it's a great idea.
I'm more interesting in devil's canyon though: http://www.guru3d.com/news_story/intel_haswell_refresh_codenamed_devil%E2%80%99s_canyon_have_improved_tim.html

Broadwell has apparently been pushed back to 2015 with devil's canyon is replacing high end haswell models this summer. And AMD doesn't get carrizo until next year.....great.
