Got this from the Dell UK website just now:

Delivery time/date : 1st or 2nd week of August for English version, 3rd or 4th week of August for other versions

So there you have it...... This must be the longest awaited upgrade this century!
Watching the flurry of forum messages overnight and this morning about the A05 upgrade and the numerous problems some people have had, surely Dell must have some sort of procedure for testing their software/ROM upgrades before they issue it? Again I repeat, this is no tinpot Company but a Company with a turnover/profit of $39 billion dollars. I have a little experience of programming but the one thing I do remember being told was TEST, TEST before publishing my efforts. I think they are doing a "Microsoft" by getting the public to test it for them. If that's what they are doing, they must stand by the consequences.
