Ah, Well I signed up to sign up anyway. I most likely will regret this when I have a box of spam emails though.

Excellent! Of course, it will probably be announced on all Potter webpages minutes after a release date is released, but you can't go wrong with signing up.

Everybody listen to this info by novinite.com:
Lifestyle: 1 July 2004, Thursday.
Harry Potter fans will be able to devour the next adventures of their favorite hero in their sixth book by JK Rowling due to appear within 4-5 months.
The author herself has confirmed in her web site that the sequel's title will be Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince, thus denying earlier hoaxed suggestions on the exact wording.
The US Potter books publishing house has confirmed the news on the title, though not detailing on the dates of the sixth sequel's release on the world market.
According to JK Rowling's Bulgarian publishers, Egmont Bulgaria, the next Harry Potter edition will be a bit thinner - definitely less than the 1000-paged fifth one.
It also remains unconfirmed whether the world-famous British author would continue the sequel with an eighth book about Harry Potter's life and adventures, thus withdrawing from her promise to put the story's final full stop in book seven.
Can't wait Yays!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Everyone, including me, wants books 6 & 7 yesterday!!! or even today will do. But, I am watching my galleons very closely so I can afford to buy a new wand. I will wait to see where I get my very best price. And the virute of waiting and time is another mystery for us Ravenclaws.

Amazing how quickly this starts up. However, we might have a long time to wait. I would imagaine the earliest the book would be out is some time next June. That would be good timing with the POA DVD and then GOF movie.
