It is not a rumor ! it is a fact !
seems like Europe is a bit ahead (somewhat unusual)
There are scheduled dealer presentations starting in April 2011;
a bit of info is already known; I don´t want to disclose it yet; spoils the surprise bit!
hang in there !
info to come soon
Looks like the "new" charger will be able to charge also the 10,8V (12Vmax) slide-on batteries

Well, I actually also heard this at the wholesale shop I buy all my stuff at. The seller told me he had spoken with Dewalt and slidepack will be on all tools. This is about 4 to 6 weeks ago or something like that he told me this. As some of you may know Sweden is my region. Maybee we will have this first in Europe, more normal is that the new tools hit us market first. But sometimes we got it first. For example, For what I know you only have the DC212 in the states but I bought the DC213 for some weeks ago. Same as DC212 but also with chipping mode. ( 3 way mode )

Sorry guys, I had to nuke the article off of our site at DeWalt's request. I'll be sure to put it up right away and let you guys know as soon as I get the ok.

Nope...I just moved the whole thing to draft so it can be moved back when DeWalt makes their "official" release.

Someone breached a contract. That's weak!

Just so you guys know, nobody breached a contract. We are not under contract to not talk about this, we put it online and DeWalt asked us respectfully to remove it. We removed it as a favour to them, plain and simple.

I'm sure ToolGeek was refering to the dealer (or whoever was given that photo) who was not authorized to share the picture or info on the new tools after it was presented to them. He wasn't refering to this site or any others that had it posted. As a Dewalt employee I am glad there is a lot of excitement around this new tool launch and I look forward to Dewalt releasing more info soon. Thank you Terry and DOG.com for respecting the wishes of Dewalt and not let info get out too soon. I am sure there are competitors (TTI/Makita) employees that visit this site and we don't want them knowing what we have in store  . Just like Apple doesn't share any info on new product launches until a couple weeks before launch... Press release should be out in the next couple months, so we shouldn't have to wait that long  |

That picture was actually left on the doorsteps of everyone's hotel room that went to the Yellow Fusion event in Toronto. If DeWalt wanted to keep it private, they should have been more careful. Regardless, I'm always happy to be diplomatic with tool companies marketing departments. I work in marketing myself and know that people make mistakes.

That's true. So did you get to see the new tools? I have never heard of the Yellow Fusion Event. |

The Yellow Fusion event is a Canada thing.
I didn't get to see the new tools. It was hands off. I can't wait to get them in my hot little hands.
In my opinion, DeWalt's Nano battery technology mixed with their breadth of cordless tools is #1 in my books.
I love their DCD970KL. I work for a company that waves a Makita flag everywhere they go, but I'm a big time DeWalt guy. I take a lot of grief to be honest, but I could care less. DeWalt in my opinion is number one for many reasons.
