Update: I think that Channel 9 is jumping the gun. I hear now that the RTM date is as of yet unknown.

2 more days to the RTM:

Channel 9 says the RTM will be available on MSDN Subscriber Downloads this Friday (October 14th).

And 26 more days to the launch:

We’ll be at the November 7th launch in San Francisco to show off our product with VS2005 and .NET 2.0!

This product launch has been eagerly awaiting by a very large group of people. We’re excited too. Drop by our booth at the SF launch and see us.
