Just remember to consider the products that came out "on time" but were
unusable, or lacked most of the features originally announced for them.
How many times did Microsoft re-spin NT4 and several of its components
such as Exchange Server to lop off features originally announced that
they never delivered?  Same thing is going on now with "Cairo".
