I've seen Haiku at their SCALE booth, and while it looks good, I'm not hopeful that they'll ever get enough developers interested in working on it to make it work.
That said, I think it's HUGELY important for there to be more OS alternatives out there, especially ones that aren't Unix based so we have some variety.

I followed the link through from the article and learned that Haiku has no WiFi stack. No WiFi; no interest by me.
I certainly hope you're wrong about their ability to attract developers but I fear you are probably right.

I never did get into BeOS. If Haiku has adequate hardware support it might be interesting to try it out.
