Hi fellas!
I got my hands on this today, so the update should be available any time now... Well, one would think so, anyway.
As usual, don't ask me where I got it, but it's reliable (ie. straight from the source). And don't ask for release dates as I have no idea, but I would guess within the week.
Merry Christmas!
