Scalpers want to know if it's worth it to order en masse so they need more specs to feel the market ? shrugs
> why does their announcement upset you so much?
Why do you assume this specific announcement is what upset me? Why do you assume this has anything to do with their product marketing strategy? Why do you assume I wouldn't have gotten angry even after they released the product?

I think you’re talking past each other. The “information” is the schematics and firmware of the board, not the press release and the specs.
Isn't Raspberry Pi open source hardware?
It's not. They don't even release full schematics of boards.
Most of the tech world announces products, executes a marketing strategy and then releases stock into the market.
You make it sound like someone left you standing at the alter. You didn't know it existed an hour ago. If you were on a long vacation, you it might release before you return. Why get angry?
