Take the JooJoo. It was hyped as well, and as soon as the first devices came out, people started shooting it down, as it couldn't do what what said when the first specs came out.
Im not sure the majority felt let down did they?

A better price than pretty much everyone expected and better battery life.

A minority, geeks and such people with a more tech oriented mind set who were hoping for USB ports and a full OSX were being unrealistic really.

But I would say the majority certainly dont feel let down, not from what i have heard and read anyway.
