Two out of seven named isn't that bad. I reckon it's about the same rate as among "real" journalists. Well, at least two bloggers have done a good journalistic job of the piece.

It isn't that that products are vaporware - it's that the company is vaporware. Did you ever find out who placed that 100,000 unit order? Is there a big, honking chance it was nobody and the press release was entirely made up? Call the company. Call the guy. Call their "media partners" like the NFL or whoever and do some actual primary source research here if you want to wave your lily white credentials around. C'mon.
