Hyperion haven't said anything offically about a release date beyond "when it's done".
This is just rumor and hearsay by Software Hut. As they said "We have heard that ..."such and such will happen.

I'm inclined to agree until I hear it from Hyperion myself.  Being an AmigaOne board beta-tester/developer, I'm on the internal mailing list and Hyperion have NOT given a release date to us there, so I think it's pretty damn unlikely they'll have given one to Software Hut.

Wasn't there something like this before? Like a month or so ago, that got people all in a huff as some vendor posted something untrue or rumor about the AmigaOne...

Something like that, yeh.

Remember everyone - Software development is a tricky business... something you were expecting to take months can take days, and then something you were expecting to take days can take months.  Hyperion have been silent about release date for the simple reason that until they have it done, they don't know when it will be done.  They're not going to release some half-assed incomplete product just to meet some supposed deadline.  I think October is a reasonable GUESS, but no more than that, a guess.  Who knows, they may surprise everyone and release it tomorrow for all anyone knows at this point.
