It looks like the Windows 8 beta will be released on the 29th Feb, as MS are hosting a consumer preview event in Barcelona at the Mobile World Congress:

There's more info @ The INQ:

Quote:
Although Microsoft hasn't said anything specific yet, the event most likely will launch the public beta version of Windows 8. It had previously said that it would release the public beta this month and the preview event falls on the last day of the month.

If the public beta tips up on time, that makes it more likely that Microsoft will release the full version of Windows 8 this year.

Windows 8 download

Windows 8 is expected to made available for download immediately thereafter.
(I'm assuming that's on the 29th of February, later in the day)

It looks like there could be an early release as someone has posted this on the Windows 8 forums:

Installed and configured. Some differences in Navigation from the developer, so I'm still looking around.
