Mind you, this was not any type of customer service rep or tech support guy. This was an engineer who actually worked on it.

He confirmed, and very quickly I might add (didn't need to look anything up....he immediately knew the answer), that the update we all DESPERATELY want will come out this Friday, February 15th. I said to him, "This Friday? That's a strange day. You guys usually release on Mondays." He replied, "Yes, it is an unusual day. We are releasing it on Friday because it's already late to market."

I think this is pretty credible info. He backed it up with admission of a strange release day and the fact that it's late.

Now, bring it on Naysayers....
See this is why you don't believe everything over the phone. Here several forums have quoted this single post thinking that it was creditable info. So all day long people have been checking the htc site in hopes to see an update. Big waste of time.
