Rumor: Dash update coming tomorrow

Monday's sun is setting and we still have yet to hear from Microsoft about the Spring dashboard update. But talk is a flutter over on the Xbox.com forums from Xbox Live members who've contacted customer support and are hearing that the update will roll out tomorrow, May 8th. Some even heard from CS managers a 3:00AM pacific time frame for when the dash update will be released. We of course can't confirm such talk, but we aren't expecting the update to be released today anymore, so tomorrow is the next best thing. Any fanboys talk to Xbox CS and hear something different?

[Thanks, MoltenGrog]

14. Wednesday is XBLA release day. I'm wondering if they're would do a dash update the same day or hold off for another day. This is just my speculation, but I wouldn't be surprised if the dash update occured after Wednesday.

15. ...I had no idea how impatient I actually am until today. Damn, I am really looking forward to this upgrade (especially after wasting ten bucks on GOW maps that I can't use [since I can't fine hosts nor am willing to wait for 20-25 minutes waiting for others to join the game I am hosting]).
