Hardware is different than software.
until a piece of hardware hits the retail shelves it is not real, as
it can be tweaked played with etc. Software is similar but usually
they soak the ground with betas etc.
MS is working with phone manufacturers to make sure they meet certain
hardware minimums that MS wants. Already they are talking a 1 Ghz
processor within the phone. Until the phone meets software we will
just have to see.
Last night I saw the first ads for the Ipad. Lots of Ad space, but
not a real look at it. Until it hits the shelves (it has already
been delayed) we wont know real world reviews of it.
Lets be honest here. If MS announced a spectacular new piece of
hardware/software and did not let you feel it and touch itl, you
would cry that it is vapor ware until it actually hit the shelves.
I wont go that far with the Ipad. It is not reality until it is in
the hands of the consumers and the reviewers (not prototypes, but
real actual live Ipads)
I already saw where the CEO of ATT was saying most folks do not want
to pay for an extra 3G service plan. So he did not expect a huge
number of those to be sold.
Kind of a strange comment to me.

We have only seen Jobs handle it and some after time playing. Same
with Windows 7 phone.
On April 3 we will see the whole story when it hits the shelves.

No, the iPad exists. You can drive nails with it. It is not yet
available for retail sale, but that is not the same as being fictitious.
