When will you update the Production Status, steve?

[Lally Singh]

Just to clarify, what kind of time range would be needed?  A week (4
weeks?) for production, plus another week (4 weeks) for testing?
If testing shows problems, possibly another 6 weeks for another cycle?

I don't want some sort of indirect promise on the delivery date -- I
know it's too fuzzy.  Just some help interpreting the meaning of the
update.
Personally I'm already committed and don't mind having some more time
of productivity on my dissertation before the sudden halt that will
arrive when the phone arrives :-D
