Already? I'ld be very surprised. Looking on the UK site I can't find any
release date mentioned. It also seems to be Vista and XBox only, and
these days I'm running Linux on the desktop and have a PS3 for most
gaming (and some old Heretic, Hexen and Doom stuff under Dosbox- works
well).
Sadly the Thief series is relying completely on the underlying system
being MS. If there is one small problem I have with Thief it's that they
should have gone OpenGL instead of DirectX. Ah well, looks like one day
I'll have to re-install W2K on an old PC just for that.

Btw, the AvP looks really good, and apparently it's out in Feb.

Tops.
