If you think it's implemented the same as J2EE and that it offers nothing new -- then its obvious you've never even spent 10 minutes on their site seeing what it does.
Node.js is asynchronous and event driven -- and when compared to the thread-pool J2EE approach it's actually quite innovative and has the potential to produce a lot more client throughput (as it's not sitting around with 10 blocked threads waiting to fetch data from a disk or database).
The only thing worse than churn is people running their mouths when they wont even take 15 minutes out of their precious day to evaluate something honestly.
