I've discussed this with many people. I feel that once an actual date is set more people will buy in. Many think they will announce a date a few days before the Gold launch. I'm concerned that many think since there is no actual date to expect it may not launch "on time." That doesn't concern me any though, end of October is near as is the Gold launch.
