Not specifically, but the Dell rep did explain that since they want to
ship things with full compatiblity, it takes about a month of testing
post-release to get things ready (which is why they didn't ship with
7.10 for a bit over a month after 7.10 was released). So you'd
probably be looking at May or early June for the 8.04 machines from
Dell.

I expect the GG > HH upgrades should be fine as long as you wait a few
weeks after the release (major bugs that may exist will be discovered
and ironed out by then).
