IE7 – No Beta 1 for regular users

IE7 (Internet Explorer 7.0) has been released in Beta 1 form for specially invited beta-testers and subscribers to Microsoft TechNet. Many was hoping for an official Beta 1 available for all users to download but accoording to Microsoft the Beta 1 versions of IE7 and Windows Vista will only be available for beta-testers. Microsoft wasn’t able to answer if there eventually will be an official version of IE7 Beta 1 and at the same time it could not specify a final launch date. We simply have to wait and see, but we pressume that there will be at least some ruckus when Mozilla is about to launch Firefox 1.5.
