I was pulling for Summer 2005, but now there's the pregnancy issue. 
When's JKR due--is it Spring 2005? I hate to push my prediction back 
to Summer 2006, but it seems a possibility. I can't see her breaking 
the pattern of Summer releases unless the publisher presses it for 
it. And I doubt they would, the longer the better from their 
perspective right? Only if they sensed a lagging interest in the 
series, which seems unlikely (although I'm obviously biased since HP 
is my #1 hobby <g>).
