Microsoft have confirmed that the next iteration of it's "popular" web browser, Internet Explorer 8, will not be released until 2009 with it's first release not arriving until Q1 2009. This also means that what we see now in Beta 2 will not be far off the final version that will be released sometime next year.
We will be very selective about what changes we make between the next update and final release. We will act on the most critical issues. We will be super clear about product changes we make between the update and the final release.
There are still plenty of things for them to fix, but most of what is broken has been broken in every previous version if IE too.
