PVPS will release when they are ready for production use. You can always email sales@powervps.com and see if you can start a WindowsVPS right now.

We are still BETA testing, and you are welcome to join. I full expect to not be ready to launch September 1st as we are still experiencing issues and will most likely be asking current customers to start with a clean VPS as the builds prior to CR3 seem to be responsible. We'll be notifying the beta testers about this next week.

We are still in BETA testing and will be until the product meets our levels of stability and reliability, and basic features like backups and migrates work properly.

I do not expect to come out of beta prior to October 1st given current issues and delays getting them resolved.
