Microsoft just did a genius act. It released it to its Volume License customers before it went live on TechNet or MSDN.
So, now the volume license customers come to these groups and ask for help, and none of the MVPs have the RTM build yet, because we depend on TechNet and MSDN.
Needless to say, none of the add-in developers have an RTM build as well as none of the people who write all the Office books...

I am not amused, but thankfully MSDN/TechNet are scheduled to have it tomorrow.

Hi,

Sorry to say the opposite ;)

It is available since yesterday on my eLicense site.

I'm open Value customer and I'm logged on with my Passport account and trust
me this is the real real final version.

I have Office Enterprise 2007 and Office Professional Plus 2007.

Microsoft is not used to deploy Beta version for Volume License customers ;)
well as far as I know.

Another possibility : this is an error from someone at MS ...

But I have the install source here 100% sure of what I say ...

Thanks anyway ;(
