I have spent hours googling SP3 for windows, but I couldn't find anything.

So, does anyone know if you can get the beta version somewhere? And when will microsoft release it?

SP3 was released yesterday to MSDN members, and next week on the 29th SP3 final will be release. You can install RC version of SP3 but your better off waiting til next week so you don't have to worry about uninstalling the RC then then installing the final release of SP3.

From what I know SP3 is supposed to combine everything from SP1 and Sp2 and all the hotfixes between SP2 to the release of SP3. AS for some new stuff I made mention about a topic I made last year about new info about Vista SP1 and XP SP3, I found this article that talks about some of the new stuff in XP. I also made mention my topic that SP3 is said to improve the speed of office products as well.

Also check out this somewhat outdated PDF file on SP3 from Microsoft website, about what to expect as well.

Makes your XP look like Vista, other than that, nothing obvious, according to my cousin.
