Personally, I'd wait.  I can't count how many times I've been pointed to
vaporware...  And at this point, everything is just that.  I've noticed that
people are much more comfortable with an announcement when there's something
behind it.  It gives much more credibility (not that it's an issue in this
case).

To sum it up, hype blows.
