Given it's 4:45 AM in Redmond, I'm guessing most of the folks there are still asleep. It will come.. No one said anything about any specific time for when it would be released. Just that it's going to be on April 30th. And that is a 24 hour time period. It could be pretty much ANY time today. Stay tuned!

If I had patience I'd have been a Doctor not and IT consultant!!

No jfdltd you would have been a Doctor only if you had 'Patients', not patience:-) Sorry I couldn't resist that.
