They've been saying soon with new firmware updates and yet nothing. So publishing what might or might not be happening as news is not a good idea. When it's really happening, then it's good to be news. Also, it means that other tech sites might pick up the news and run with it and if for some reason you had to be delayed, you would not look silly.
Dear JS:

You and Zelda and others make sense. I know all of you mean well so I will take it that way.

I will post in the Astak Designated Forum WHEN we start shipping and hope Pilot Bob or some moderator takes it to the NEWS area. I normally deal with Dale DePriest but know he is on a trip.

I will abide by the rules!
