I joined the connect beta beta program for this a while back. I never
tested it because I discovered you have to use it on a dual core pc,
and I didn't have one to spare at the time. The last email I received
from them on June 9th said "Windows Thin PC has been released to
manufacturing (RTM), and will be available for our SA customers to
download starting July 1, 2011."
