Which vaporware awards stopped allowing DNF to be listed? Mustn't have been wired, but I recall one of them giving DNF a "lifetime achievement award" for being the longest running joke in the industy (or something to that effect).

I thought vapourware was stuff that was promised but never delivered? It said there were a bunch of blackjacks made and sold so how are they vapourware?

They're talking about the promised, but never delivered Windows Mobile 6 update for the Blackjack.

Isn't vaporware in reference to things like the Phantom and DNF? Things that are promised, but have reasonable doubt that they'll ever see the light of day? How the hell does XP SP3 get classed as vaporware? Isn't it in open beta now?

Why did they mention Diablo 3? It's not like Blizzard have been making this game for ages and continually pushing it back like DNF. It shouldn't even be on that list at all, or on any list.

I guess they ran out of actual vapourware things they just added a few padding options
