Hi Joseph,

If we knew the date with 100% certainty I would certainly share it with you.

As we have seen there is no standard meaning to the word "quarter" either.

I'll go back to months. That's still somewhat Western-centric but perhaps sufficiently accepted that it should not cause trouble.

It's an excellent description because they don't want to be specific!
Push it more and I could see them just saying "It'll be out in 2008".

FreeRunner is due for release at the end of Spring, but which Spring
is this? East Asia? US? Europe?
      I have to say, spring is a bad description of when FreeRunner will be
released, though from my knowledge East Asia, the US and Europe all have spring
at the same time +- 24 hours.  I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be spring in the
southern hemisphere since that's still ten and a half months away.
Amen.  Using seasons for describing milestones (a common US behaviour)
or even worse using holidays (e.g. we'll release that by Thanksgiving),
is always the *wrong* thing to do.
