I think it will make sense for Blizzard to announce SC2 Beta at the conference call, since it will be public, and it will somewhat reassure investors that their development project is well under way and nearing completion, meaning that they are right on schedule (after announcement of the delay last summer).

Also, being a public announcement, there might be a few beta tid-bits that the SC community will be able to relish while awaiting Beta videos on youtube, and the game itself in May/June. Oh, and this might be an (unsaid) closure announcement as well, regarding their major pre-release marketing, since beta players will be doing all the work for them on youtube.

I'm looking forward to this, because, as has been mentioned, this call is public; hence, it could only mean good news

[spychi]

[Crazy_Jonny]

I give up after this.

(On the game ever coming out)

Even if there isn't 'direct' beta news this Wed, I still think we're close.
