Taipei Times reports Microsoft Taiwan has announced during a press meet that Internet Explorer 8 will be released on March 20 in the local Taiwanese version. It was earlier predicted that Microsoft will RTM IE 8 in the week of March 16. Now we can expect the release of Internet Explorer 8 alongside MIX09 on March 19.The Internet Explorer 8 sessions are now live on the MIX website which also includes the keynote address by Dean Hachamovitch, General Manager of Internet Explorer team at Microsoft.
As the Taiwanese version is getting released on March 20, we could expect Internet Explorer 8 (English version) being released in MIX09.
For now, the version information of IE 8 in the About screen does not reflect Release Candidate 1 in the recent Windows 7 builds 7048 and 7057
And here is how it looks in the Windows 7 build 7032
They'll stick Trident.
They'll stick Trident.
Or move to Gazelle.

No, probably not. Maybe through microsoft.com, however.
There is almost always a gap of a couple of months between RTM announcement and WU availability.
Yes, yes, I understand that IE 8 has actually been in development.
I figured, but only after I made that comment. Thanks for the clarification.
No.
I've no idea what the two of you are implying but:
IE8 has better CSS support than IE7. It's not as good as the other big browsers, but it's better. Upgrade, regardless of whether you actively use it.

I think IE8 has the fullest support of CSS 2.1 among all browsers, which is the latest CSS spec to date.
Thanks
