So, they give out some details but STILL NO RELEASE DATE, even though January is almost over? I hate it when highly-publicized software has to be delayed over and over, just like Bank had to be delayed repeatedly last time. The longer we wait, the more likely this supposed update is going to be seen as vaporware (a la Microsoft's "Cairo" operating system project, which was first announced in 1991, but ultimately never shipped; and Windows codename "Longhorn", which was first announced in 2002, but was delayed several times and ultimately rewritten and released in 2007 as "Windows Vista".)
I wouldn't be surprised if the final updated product does not get released until sometime in the spring, or maybe even early summer (for the northern half of the world).
