Please don't respond with "no one knows"
I know that, I know its a guess, thats what I'm looking for.
Additionally what would you like to see fixed in said update?
Likely any time now considering how many 10.7.2 betas they have been pushing out. I suppose the final release will be tagged around the time iCloud hits since that seems to be the primary focus of the upgrade, so say late September / early October.
Oh yeah, they definitely have to fix that. Resetting the SMC did little to nothing for me. Kinda sucks not being able to get more than 5.5 hrs (on lowest settings) in Lion whereas I was easily getting 7.5 hrs under Snow Leopard.
