Um... Wasn't part of the reason Irex released the Illiad early to get feedback...?

I fail to see how the maintainers would best know it would be adapted for a revolutionary type of display...! And how would these people know how to deal with properties of such a display (eg low refresh rate)...?
Personally, I'm quite astounded in how someone would knowingly with-hold information that can only be used by Irex to make the product better and more useful to all. Not to mention withholding this information to other developers who might be able to find work arounds...
