Looks like all the pre-order rumors are true. http://www.swtor.com/preorder isn't active yet (page not found) but I have a feeling it will be by the end of the day, or by tomorrow. There's a pre-order tab on ea.com that leads there.

Think I'll pass on the $150 collectors edition. Not much for offline swag. I have enough stuff collecting dusk on my desk already. Hopefully there's a digital version for about half that price.

New trailer (built from the 3 Blur trailers - spoiler-tagged so it won't autoplay everybody to death...):

Separate but related announcement from the pre-order, they're starting some kind of beta test weekend programs in September, which I think might fit into the October timeframe I've been expecting:

By hardcore, I meant people who spend a lot of time playing WoW. 28 year old women and 35 year old men who are playing WoW now will not switch to D3. D3 is a completely different beast and will not appeal to general non-gaming public like WoW did.

Just preordered mine, says ships on January 3rd from Amazon 1 day shipping.
I figure it will be around the holiday season and after Star Wars Galaxies closes. |

Just as a guess, I don't think we're going to get a real release date announcement until PAX Prime, which is at the end of August (26th-28th). |

Have they said for certain what the monthly fee will be? I looked around for a bit, but couldn't find anything definitive other that guesses that it would be $15.

(I actually bought one. I won't be eating anything but ramen in september and october) No announcement of the monthly fee yet that I'm aware of. It's been universally assumed to be $15. |
