Revisited: Will A Dance with Dragons be completed in 2010?

I posed the question at the end of 2009/beginning of 2010.
As of several weeks ago, however, Martin has reportedly completed 1400 manuscript pages, and his publishers are reportedly very reluctant to publish anything over 1500. Although I've admittedly been overly optimistic on this front in the past, it seems to me that we should be fairly close to a big announcement, absent a decision to rewrite half the book or some such.
Is anyone willing to change their original prediction for completion in 2010?

I agree. I've actually somewhat given up on the series. Just moved on. *NM*

He was almost finished with the book in June 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 and now 2010, according to GRRM.

Completed? Probably. Published? Now unlikely.

I'd have thought Bantam would realize how many would buy it from the UK if it's out there first. *NM*

Martin's "staring at a blank screen" line doesn't sound too encouraging. *NM*

Definitely encouraging. It would make for an interesting fall! *NM*

GRRM is already up to circa 100 MS pages on Winds. The mind boggles at the timeline issues. *NM*

GRRM's now finished 8 POVs, with at least 2 left. I wonder how many more he has to go. *NM*
