From a marketing perspective, it certainly isn't the best strategy to announce April as the release date, even still stick to that date on the website and wait until June.
BUT: Given the presence of iRex' developers in this forum and the quite frequent discussions, I wouldn't call their approach "hiding".
And many users seem to be quite happy with the beta release (haven't tried it myself).
I've been briefly disappointed as well, after having received my iRex 800. But this mainly was because of my enormous expectations, iRex iLiad having been my favorite reader. With more realistic expectations, iRex units to me still are benchmark.
