The lesson here is that you don't give definitive dates unless you are the one controlling those dates (for instance, waiting for a particular event to ship the product that is sitting in your warehouse).

WakeMate wasn't, so they shouldn't have worded things that strongly. Never underestimate the number of things that can go wrong.
