Chubulor, I first read about the early access program in July or August, when I was suggesting to my husband that he not buy another device and instead wait on the Adam. Count with me, now: August, 1. September, 2. October, 3. Today is Nov. 4. I think "three" meets the qualification for plural. Your insistence on intepreting everything literally seems to have led you to miss the larger point, one we agree on, I think: Companies can say anything they want--and they'd be wise not to disappoint customers with claims they can't meet--but it's pretty meaningless until they get the devices into customers' hands.

Good to see you haven't changed either, NT. Exaggerating* your points and then blaming other people for assuming you actually meant what you wrote... it reminds me of another thread of yore that we may not want to revisit.
The Early Access program was announced
here on August 30, 2010, by the way, making it barely 2 months since the announcement. My memory was off by a month, I admit, but the larger point, that your claim of "looking more like vaporware every day" was off-base, stands. There was no promise of a date for getting the device into developers' hands at that time, certainly not by four days later on September 3, which would be the latest date that could have qualified as 2 months or longer before the date of your original post.
