Yes I noticed that too. I'm sure if they get access to 40% better energy density (note: volumetric) then it would be offered as an option on the Roadster. I wonder if that was a subtle hint that this is coming, or whether he was talking in the same generalisms as we do when we refer to 3600mAh cells?

I wonder how long after that before the general public will get to finally see it?

Hmm. Geneva is 5-15th March. Will they put it on a plane, do they have two, or do we have to wait longer?

Any owner fancy a new tie?

Tesla never has been good at keeping secrets...Photos leaking? I think so.

(Or at least I hope so!)

Ok, looks like it's actually March 5th, and they'll take deposits for it that day. If you have a Roadster or a deposit down on a Roadster, you have priority for the Model S. Delivery is based on the order in which deposits are received.

BusinessWeek teaser photo notwithstanding, TM has done a good job keeping spy photos away. Then again there was that Road & Track shot...

One of the people that wrote up info on the town hall meeting today said that the site was gonna get some changes in the next few days. Maybe they are going to have an "Under Construction" section for the Model S and they will update that section after the unveiling on March 5th? One can hope
