Dear Vishal,
Thank you for finding this information. I cracked a smile when i read "If you want to download it via Windows Update, then you'll not have to wait for long time, its coming very soon." Your heart is so big, that even bad news can't help but sound good from you. I don't mind waiting for it. I would prefer to update it along side my Vista though, and I knew I was going to have to wait for SP2 about the same amount of time.
Thanks a lot.

It's sad that MS is not going to include IE8 RTM in Windows 7 Beta anytime soon. But the leaked builds do have it, and I think it's going to be included in May's Windows 7 RC1.
