Here's a blog post from the Mac team. Short version: there's still a while to go before they have anything usable and they're not setting a date yet. Right now they only have components of it working, so they still have to work on the rest of the codebase in addition to whatever changes they make because of the Windows beta testing.

Also some guy wrote a post about the communication Chrome does with Google. Executive summary:

• it doesn't send what sites you're visiting

It does query for search completions, automatically update, and grab malware URL lists and spellcheck dictionaries.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It doesn't have to be Google if you've chosen another default search engine, and you can disable it.

I actually laughed pretty hard when I heard about this one.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
