I just got a tweet of an online convo with a csr who started that pre release starts Wednesday. Is this old news? I'd this creditable? I tweeted it bit perhaps it should be in the OP?
btw I am on the train home now. Back to nj.

^^^ I received this from DrexelDragon, last night so I posted it.
This morning I decided to try for myself. I got a CSR who was also named "Tiffany", who said the same thing about the release and more. In fact, our convo was so long that a screenshot could not fit it all, as you had to use a scroll bar. (I still have the screen up in case I want to refer to it later).
The text has my last name in it so I'm going to past the text out and edit it into this post. So, please come back here for the full text.
Steven
