I agree with Zipper9. Characterizing the situation as impatient children waiting for Christmas presents from their parents is one way to look at it I suppose, but for most of us we are adult paying customers, waiting for a company to release its new product line. And really we have had not much information about that new product line's progress, status, or features considering how long its been in development.
You could never accuse HTC of overhyping the next version, for sure! But I think they kinda went off the deep end in the other direction. The customers may not have been in the dark for almost a year, but we've sure been in a very dimly lit room.
