It just so happened that I ran into two of your avid readers and it took us some time to resolve the point. I assume that your January estimate for the beta is based on some non-public information. It makes sense based on the fairly detailed documents that are available and the fact that there will be extensive testing necessary between the next version of VMware and the 1000V. I tend to stick with a far later date for my GA estimate ... /tom Colin,

You are correct that the public availability of the 1000V is slated for the first half of CY09, however I fully expect to see it in beta environments by the end of January.
