Anyone know when they are planning on releasing their 3d-surround drivers? If they stick to schedule it would be a massive disappoint to wait potential month(s) for this feature.

Nvidia has released 197.41, which is a WHQL-certified driver for GeForce GTX 480 and GeForce GTX 470 GPUs. This is the driver that will be shipping with the cards when they are available to order next week from what we have been told from our sources inside NVIDIA.
I know someone who got it Friday of last week. :)
