New IGN Article has OB "within days"

[Aeife/Niamb]

The article is dated yesterday, 10/25, and says:

So downtime is low, the game has the Blizzard polish, even though it's still in beta. What's next? Well, there's that open beta I mentioned earlier, which we're supposed to be seeing within days. The devs expect it last two to three weeks, and many more servers will be available to support the (presumably) huge numbers of people who will be flocking to this one like crazy. An open beta player won't have access to all the content, however--only one or two raids, but there will be PvP as well as "care bear" servers. Hunter and Paladin talents will be in by the time the open beta launches, so you can use that as a marker for the open beta date.

Pally talents are in next patch / update. Has to be this week or they will not be running the open trial for 2-3 weeks. I would say they are going to run the open trial max 15 days.

So it is real soon or they will have to push release out another month. I am not sure they will want to push release out to December. They will want things smooth as silk Santa's delivery and the first of the year blizzard. LOL

Im not delivering any copies untill i get one myself *hmph* you all have to wait like me

Santa, why couldn't we just buy you one here in the states, and ship you a copy? Also, I am sure you could use a US address when you sign up, to avoid problems. I'd gladly give you mine, if you want.
