Dude, you seriously think engadget would post an article like this the day before the product was coming out if they hadn't already seen and handled the device? If they haven't already had it for at least a week, I'd be shocked.
This is really pretty damn ridiculous. Obnoxiously. This isn't just an article - it's an in-depth look at ONE device that may or may not (but definitely does) exist.
I'm definitely one of those readers that gets annoyed when people keep bitching about this site's biases but this - this is just... a whole different level.
It has been done on here before. start of the day there are articles about laptop x and its rumoured specs or spy shots. By early afternoon there is an official announcement and then within an hour a hands on feature of said laptop.
The excuse? NDAs and what not.
Let all wait till tomorrow. We all on the hype train now - no one is getting off until tomorrow.
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.

@Luke We haven't seen anything -- in fact, part of the point of this piece was to point out that no one's ever seen anything!
@Nilay Patel
I'll believe you this time Nilay, but I've got my eye on you. :)

Nilay Patel's a pretty cool guy. Eh, talks to commenters and doesn't afraid of anything.
@PlatinumSkeet

They couldn't wait more than once.
@PlatinumSkeet
They are addicts. They need their fix.
