You said "their estimates" which I took to mean Apples own estimates. Isn't it tradition for Apple to beat their own estimates, fail to meet analysts estimates, and having their shares drop for a period of time…
How did they miss their estimates?
How was it horrible? Compared to other ultraportables at the time it was exceptionally good (I bought a FSC Q2010 just before the iPad came out.)
If they were doing fashion, they would change to a new look every year. Remember the disappointment when the iPhone 4S kept the iPhone 4 design? Apple doesn't care about fashion, they care about good design.
People said that Macs were glorified toys until Windows made GUIs commonplace. I don't know what the future holds but I'm pretty convinced that it is not a hybrid OS like Windows 8.
I think the diaplays alone are pretty great. What would it take for you to call them mind-blowing?
I still use my Chumby as an alarm clock, and it works really well. I hope that it will be possible to keep it running without the chumby servers through some hacks. Really sad to see that it didn't work out.
