Ouch...

Not exactly news; they did say it was a prototype design and even asked the audience for opinions on it (which is somewhat bizarre).

Did any of the manufacturers bring a working console, anyways?  MS brought devkits, and I'd expect Sony to have done the same.

@Kami; yeah, I'm worried about a lack of tactile feedback myself.  Of course, it's possible they'll have that and a touchpad or something...

MS had working consoles there, they just didn't use them as it is still not completely finalized (more specifically, the disk drive).

Soooooo........... they had the final product all ready, but didn't want anyone to see it because.....it wasn't finished?!

Final product is not the same thing as working. And they did show it.

So a final product doesn't necessarily have to work?  That's a curiously MS-esque view.

 (because if they did have a working product, they wouldn't need to use devkits to run the demos, would they?)

Gah, I know they have versions that work that are not dev kits (not necesarily at E3)... Let's just leave it at that.
