I'm eagerly waiting on this release and I see it isn't on the books page under current releases or upcoming either one.

Didn't you hear, Seattle got destroyed sometime between 2070 and 2072.

Last I heard, the book was done (i.e. in PDF form) and was waiting for print.
But don't quote me on that.
I'm still waiting patiently for that, the Runner's Toolkit, the Almanac, and whatever Corp download they come out with next.

One of my players brought back a copy from Dragon Con. Definitely a must buy if your a Seattle fan or run your games there. And it's a damn fine good lookin book too.

It's a beautiful book indeed. And it has two short stories by me! Bonus!

Actually, just to clarify, unless something recently changed, the hardcopy is still a preorder only. Limited copies were available at the cons (A rushed early printing that features a blank credits page), but a final, official release date has not been announced by the CGL crew.
Granted, they might forget to announce it's date and let it sneak onto shelves, as Running Wild did.

No, due to the page 3 gaffe, Seattle 2072 ended up delayed a little bit. Street date will be announced when we know it.

What is this infamous "Page 3 gaffe"?

As Bull stated, there was a blank credits/chapter list page on the first print run that made it to the Cons.

It wasn't a gaffe! It was a page for getting signatures, a special convention-only treat! Really.

The way he said it, I thought maybe that was intentional, i.e. the Azzie blood mages required a sacrifice, and it was the credits page!

Yeah, "features" was probably the wrong word to use.
Either way, yeah, this sucks cause I'm eagerly awaiting a hardcopy to use and abuse

I picked one up at GenCon and I agree, it is an awesome looking book.
