We have discussed many app on HN before they've been released, including the Atlas, the iPhone, and more.

A product not yet ready to be released clearly does not equate to that product not existing.

Nor does being angry entitle you to infer someone else is somehow lying when they say the app being demonstrated exists.

Displaying a landing page with some photo-shopped images "demonstrating" things is a very prolific "idea testing" technique.

While this appears to be a false positive brought on by their lack of a download page, I do not think the person you're replying to was out of line for thinking that's what this is.
