How can it be ??
Built 7048 and 7057 where compiled long time ago.
IE8 in thise built is still in RC.
The RTM will be included on the public RC of Seven.
IEBlog : Internet Explorer 8 Final Available Now
Windows 7 users will receive an updated IE8 as part of the next Windows 7 milestone
I'm still waiting for something you install on the 7000 build to replace what that comes with. The latest download was installed on Vista right off and waiting to go on XP once I boot there sometime soon.
Night Hawk,
Nothing is going to replace the IE browser in build 7000.
Only on new builds and the RC1. :)
I have build 7057...how can i see the IE8 version. Can't just we remove IE8 in turn on or off windows features, and then instal IE8 RTM. Maybe that can be done...
No you can't as it isn't listed there, or anywhere else - it's part of the system. Microsoft have already stated that IE8 RTM is NOT for Windows 7.
No doubt a future beta release will have it. They also stated that IE8 will be released to Windows Update eventually, so you can always hope I guess.
Well I already figured it was pretty much glued into the 7000 build from the start. By the time IE 9 is out who would be running any betas for 7 anyways! "no IE 9 on the 7000!"Opera(slow as ...), FireFox(naaa..), Safari(got it but give me a break!). How about Netscape?

Official End of Support
Given AOL's current business focus and the success the
Mozilla Foundation has had in developing critically-
acclaimed products, we feel it's the right time to end
development of Netscape branded software. Read the
history page for more details about this decision.

Yes i know i can turn it off. But can i then install this version of IE8 that just came out? That was my point. Im using IE8 i think it is the second best browser after chrome, but chrome doesn't work on 7, too bad...
