You're reading waaay too much into it and putting the emphasis on the wrong words... "claimed" is more important, particularly since Gizmodo's chart is just a reproduction of Technoholik's chart, which, undoubtedly, was produced by Technoholik for the sake of forcing the iPad comparison and taking advantage of iPad buzz.

If you watch the actual interview with Notion Ink, they're not interested in forcing the comparison with the iPad- and actually are somewhat intimidated by it- which makes the chart (which is rather sloppy, both in specs and equivocation of terminology, especially contrasted against their website- which shows them capable of accurate terminology) unlikely to have come from Notion Ink. Technoholik turned the same 1 substantive meeting into four different features on their website for the sake of page hits... not exactly professional or above sensationalism.

Either way, launching into disparaging "unicorn" rants about inconsistency is premature without knowing the source of inconsistency. An official website should generally be given more weight than an unverified second hand reference by an reasonable skeptic.
