I can find some from like 3 weeks ago, mainly one guy 'Graeme' who seems to have changed his name to 'Grrr' while everyone else is saying, 'no, Graeme, they said it was best case'. All the other comments seem upbeat and excited.
Also it's not really comments in the article, it's a singular comment and a singular cherry-picked quote from the kickstarter comments, as in two. With no mention of the encouragement comments.
The quote is from one guy Joshua Hernandez who seems to have been featured in this author's articles before.
Seems it was a slow news day for the author and he picked a story out of his back pocket. I wouldn't call this a balanced piece. And no quote from the company.
Also check the recent AMA, is there major outrage there? Is perhaps the shipping date drama the most u/ved question?

No.
I'm not a backer or affiliated in any way what so ever. But are lots of people blowing their lid over this as the article suggests?
No.
Are people upvoting this story out of some sort of weird Schadenfreude.
Probably.
This story kinda has a smell to it. It's a bit like code smell. One guy quoted over and over. Check. No company quote. Check. No real evidence. Check.
Stinky!
