To be fair, MS never announced that Courier was a real product.

  But they leaked existence and now they required to leak its death. That is good enough to qualifies as vaporware. Aside from that. I like, "Microsoft Kills iPad Killer" perfect headline for this news. http://blogs.forbes.com/velocity/2010/04/29/microsoft-kills-ipad-killer/ http://blogs.forbes.com/velocity/2010/04/29/microsoft-kills-...

    It's a wonder Apple's products even go out in the open anymore, with so many potential murderers.

    Hard to argue with a title like that =)

  Oddly, it's leak was timed to coincide with one of the dates Apple was supposed to announce a tablet, in order to steal some press space. Nobody ever believed it would be a real product.

    Plenty of people believed it would be a real product, they were also very excited about it. It looked like something very innovative from Microsoft. Why produce such a slick looking video for vaporware? But just like Cairo with is object file system, Microsoft got us again.
