Yeah, it's a very good announcement, nicely covers everything in an understated way, good job guys.

But I'm still wonderig about the need for a 'truth in advertising' page detailing what doesn't work so well, what doesn't work at all, and what was deferred to 4.1. I can hear a million ill-informed bloggers firing up their KBlogger as we speak...

For my part I need to post something about the printing changes.

John.

there's enough good stuff in the release to concentrate on that for the time being. the blogosphere is actually very positive on this release right now, and 4.1 will end up being an answer-through-action for much of the rest.

the "this is the beginning" communication has been very effective. i even saw it echoed on wired blogs today. people get it. =)

Perhaps the blogosphere is positive, but public comments seem negative.

Just look at the comments on the CNET article

or the comments on digg

Ars Technica is normally a very pro-Linux crowd, and Digg is very mixed.

CNET has been somewhat objective surprisingly in many reviews. I believe they've been giving the Eee PC great reviews.
