Since then not only did it not come out, but adobe removed the announce for the linux version from its FAQ. So it does not look as if they have any intention of developing a linux version.
Clearly there is a Linux version, since Linux is what the Sony Reader, CyBook, iRex devices, etc etc, all run, and they all either currently or shortly will support ADE. There is, however, as you say, no desktop Linux version.
