It's gone gold for sure. I was in Reading a couple of weeks ago for the internal MS launch (for VS and SQL server as well). Was quite random, there were athletic types jumping around the atrium!

The RTM is on technet, so I imagine it's on MSDN too.

I thought it was released the other week. AFAIK the version I installed is the Gold version.

Sadly I've had sweet fa time to actually do anything with it post installation. As ever, given I'm in the team who's primary role is maintaining the old platforms, other things have cropped up keeping me away from it.

Steve Ballmer? (though I guess calling him athletic is stretching things a little far.

Yeah - I got mine from MSDN last week.

Certainly looks RTM-like. One of the MS blogs says it was signed off on 4th Feb. Seems about right. Muggins here gets the job of validating our product on it (and spending the last two days fixing the bugs - though to be fair they were Vista bugs we should have fixed ages ago).
