From information that Francisco Martin Garcia has provided it would appear that we can expect to see a Beta of Internet Explorer 9 in August. The beta will see the full functionality of IE9 and not just a developers preview, this should mean we also see the UI Microsoft have chosen for the browser.

I would guess the beta will be released in the second half of August following the 8 week release pattern so far for the IE9 developer preview, in fact I believe we are due a new version this week or next.

Francisco also reports that “Formal readiness program will begin at Beta. Additional readiness program details will be provided weeks after”.

The dates for the release candidate and when the browser is released to web are currently unknown. I am looking forward to testing out the IE9 beta and seeing how much work Microsoft have put into it.

"So the original "we're going to name Windows 8 on ARM something that won't be associated with Windows 8" isn't going to happen? I thought that would've been the best and most beneficial path to take. Oh well, only time will tell I guess."

"[...] I have my fears about how Microsoft is going to handle Windows 8 for ARM devices; I think that if Windows 8 is used to describe both x86/x64 and ARM experiences even though they are different it is going to cause massive confusion for consumers. You can read about my idea for using the name Metro instead of Windows 8 for Windows 8 on ARM. [...]"

"Disappointing. I have no issues with the media controls. The number one request to developers was to add support for Bluetooth. Sort of embarrassing when I want to quickly transfer a file to a friend and I have to explain that my brand new Windows Phone can't do that. This is inexcusable. Bad enough we lost the ability to sync with Outlook as well as the USB mass storage device feature."
