Rumor has it, that IE9 Release Candidate could be released in the next few days on January 28th. If that doesn't occur some are predicting that Microsoft will release IE9 Final version at the MIX conference in April. Let's hope that the RC version at least gets released by the end of January, because April is a long ways away!
