That seems pretty big doesn't it? Going from "we are doing this" to "we are going to release some of these to early adopters"?

  That seems pretty small to me, both in terms of progress and in terms of the actual size of of the release.

    It means they are fully committed to the programme. Up to now there was speculation that they were going to abandon it.

      No, it emphatically does not mean that. In fact, this announcement makes it sound even more like they are going to abandon it. As far as I can gather from this announcement, they're releasing a very small number of units for beta testing, and then they're getting out of the hardware game and letting third parties carry the torch.
