Hi Navi,

1) It would depend on who is calling the method - ie a Watir::Element vs a 
PageObject::Element. Generally you would be working with 
PageObject::Element, so you would be calling the Page-Object version. The 
recent versions of Page-Object forward missing methods directly to the 
Watir browser/element, which has clouded things a bit. For finding elements 
you can technically call Watir methods directly, which returns 
Watir::Elements, which means you would get Watir's version of the method. 
If you want to double-check which version is being called, check the class 
of your caller.

2) Calling `element.exists?` will not do any waiting - neither Watir or 
Page-Object's timeouts will apply. The default_element_wait will only apply 
if you did page-object's #check_exists (returns true as soon as the element 
exists, otherwise returns false when the timeout has elapsed).
