Vista - IE7 Beta 3

I got an e-mail this morning saying that IE7 Beta 3 was available for
Windows XP and so forth. Does anyone know when it might be available for
Vista??

I thought I saw an MVP say that IE7 Beta3 was
basically the same IE version already in Vista.

IE7 is included with Vista and so there will not be a separate download.
Current Vista beta versions include a newer version of IE7 than the recently
released Beta 3. When Vista RC1 is released as part of CPP it will contain
the newer version of IE7.

The version of IE7+ installed in vista beta 2 is missing many new features
included in IE7 beta 3. Just wait until vista RC1 for a newer IE7. You can't
install beta 3 on vista, thats ok, because it will be included later

That's your version of Vista, but that isn't the latest version of Vista.

I think I'll stick with Beta2 as a previous poster said Beta 3 is aimed at
XP users

Then which one is the latest?
Is there any place where we can check to know the latest build number?
I don't even suggest to download it, but just to compare how old is ours,
and to know how you can be so sure of what you're saying...
