Moments ago, I posted a note that said:

> weeks ...

As a matter of fact, my sources tell me that it's already been released
as of this week at the AUTOFACT conference....  check out the Wall Street
Journal for an article on the product, as well as looking in the other
places indicated in my previous article (e.g. HP D&A, UT!, etc).

Now as soon as I can get a press release on this, I can post some further
information for people to read .. until then, however, it's not obvious
what exactly the release consists of.  

	Anyone at HP willing to comment?
