I'm really excited to see where they go with this.
Console launch is still over a year away, so they have a lot of time for refinement. I think they probably premiered it so early in order to gauge reactions and make changes early. They sort of did the same thing for the original Wiimote.

I think it looks pretty awesome though. My coworkers and I definitely had no clue if it was supposed to be a new system or not and apparently some livebloggers thought the same I was excited to see its line up for third party titles. Very interesting
