Yup - read it and love it. 
One of my favorites.
AFAIK Vinge never claimed it is hard SF. Hard SF isn't really his thing per se in any of his writings, although he's done some near future stuff that is likely pretty hard if a reader wanted to go through and figure out how the tech might work. Rainbows End would be the main one in that area.
