Pre-ordering hardware that makes promises of substantial improvements over the status-quo that will only be testable by the buyer a few years down the line is a recipe for disaster.

Do yourself a favour and hold on to your money until there are actual units that have been tested rigorously (as in, in an independent lab unaffiliated with the company) to see if the promises are delivered on.

Would have been nice if TechCrunch did some testing / reporting, instead of accepting / repeating. Not that I'm surprised, just would have been nice in this area.
