Mac Office 2K4 SP2 Release Date?

We were informed by our company's MS Business Productivity Advisor on
8/18/05 that the Mac Office 2004 SP2 release is just a few weeks away
(consisting of mainly Entourage and Exchange improvements). Does anyone
know the exact date of this release and what fixes and new
functionality it will include? I have several users who are frustrated
with the current versions limitations and I would like to be able to
tell them there's light at the end of the tunnel.

Thanx in advance,
Larry

Nobody who knows the release date can tell us. All we know, from the press
release, is that it is coming 'later this year'

It'll be released Tuesday, Nov 22, around midnight. Don't quote me, it could
be a few hours later.

Maybe it will, maybe it won't. Over the years I have learned not to rely on
non-official announcements (and often not even the official ones!).

Until MS say something for themselves the rest is just rumour. Personally,
I'd be surprised if it was as late as that, but I'm just speculating.
