That a pretty important point if MS can show off all the same things as Sony but working MS has a PR lead. Sony only talked about it working never showed it working on real hardware. Mockups mean that hardware details can change, only need to point to the PS3 as a example.
This whole thread does show how powerful brand loyalty is when it comes to companies glossing over issues.
My fear is that MS forget the core gaming market, they need to have a strong core market along with focus on entertainment side of things. So give the gamers games, give other people entertainment services. In the later stages of xbox MS moved away from the gaming side due to Sony failing to move. The result Sony was able to catch up with a strong focus on software/entertainment. MS changed it focus on entertainment, as a result wasted it lead over the PS3. Both companies I hope take important lessons from 360/PS3 age as a result we get a better service.
Things I want from the new xbox is more first party support, redesign of the controller so the sticks have less deadzone. I can't think of anything else I want from xbox right now.
