There's some discussion on Daemon News.  I technically can't say anything
until the *official* announcement, which is/was/will be a story in the
Wall Street Journal which may be either today or tomorrow.

At this point, about all I can do is smile, nod, and point helplessly at
a three-foot stack of papers labeled "NDA".  Note that the thing on DN
pretty much answers your question.  :)
