Not sure on release time, probably fall/winter this year. But anyway, here is a preview to get you salivating. Unfortunately it is in Japanese, but there are plenty of pretty pictures and graphs. Or you can work through the rough translation. (If you are not using Mozilla, just ignore the XUL stuff it tries to download).

Not a big deal, to some, but this sort of thing _really_ bothers me (when people take credit for stuff that they very obviously didn't do). Compare the pictures at http://www.watch.impress.co.jp/pc/docs/article/200 00304/ps2_e1.htm

with the ones in the article (handily linkified here)http://www.coremagazine.com/news/1844.ph p3

Sure, they give credit to Furukawa-san & Soba-san for the pictures but they had to slap their own watermark on the pics which have been up on the Japanese site for a day or two already. Just thought i'd point that out.
