Why am I not surprised. Most "revolutionary" technologies
never materialize. Some can later directly be identified
as fraud, others are just over-enthusiastic researchers
(which is unprofessional) or marketing people (where this
is expected of them).

Rule of thumb: If it looks to good to be true, it practically
always is.
