>By those calculations, Tuesday August 7 will be the end of the 6th week. I did find 3 sites listing the upgrade but none were actually taking orders yet. In effect, all said "Real Soon Now...."

I hope it is available by then. If it isn't, don't worry. It will be available soon. 4-6 is what it normally takes to produce the disks, manuals, etc. I've seen it take longer, but not much.

As for your original comment about the ability to download the software, that's true. Many MSDN Universal subscribers have downloaded VFP7. On the other hand, others are waiting for VFP7 to be shipped to them on disk, which won't be until September. In this case, they are getting it AFTER it will be available for purchase.
