You should watch the full presentation - start up and load times were discussed at some length, with the promise of almost instant switch on and load times with clever buffering. Dedicated chip allows same time uploading/downloading of media in background.

They also discussed their new cloud technology and store setup. So that you can start to play a bought game from the store within seconds, while it continues to download.

It is something they've spent a lot of time on - so, quite frankly if all those measures work as expected they can use wet string as a recording media as far as I am concerned.
