It appears that every date that people have provided on handtops.com is assumptions rather than a specific source stating that it will be released on such date...I really don't want to get my hopes up for a product. Does anybody have a source for a release date? My concern is that this will turn into another Flybook where some sight claimed they will come out November 2005 and now they claim May 2006.
