Thankfully, Beta 1 will be available to testers in both 32bit and 64bit. Obviously, the benefits of 64bit will not be realized by the testers who deploy the 32bit version, but there is still plenty of opportunity to run the product through its paces and report on the new features.
Beta 2 is anticipated in mid-2006 and the final release in early 2007, according to Sr Product Manager Megan Kidd, as referenced in this ARNNet article.

Looks like that ship date has slipped again, huh?
It could be I don’t know. Maybe it’s to early to be very specific. Getting products out on time is a big focus for Microsoft.
The good news is Beta 1 is out, that was the purpose of my post 😉
