Starcraft 2 Nearing Beta?

Blizzard have had their head stuck in Starcraft 2 for quite some time now, despite the fact it was only officially announced earlier this year. The Starcraft: IncGamers team spotted a forum post which may indicate they are actually closer to release than we all thought.

Blizzard staffer Eyonis suddenly appeared on the WoW: Starcraft (yes they do exists) boards and started posting. When asked about his involvement in the forums he responded with:

"Yes, I'm pretty active during betas on the forums. During Starcraft, War3 and WOW I was pretty active gathering feedback, informing people about changes and explaining new features and philsophy. I don't post on the WOW forums much anymore because Tigole and Kalgan are now the lead designers on WOW. While I'm involved with all the games here at Blizzard, I'm focus the most on the games closest to release like Starcraft 2"

So there you go, a little piece of evidence that may suggest development is further along than we all thought. Will the Beta be soon? That's a question nobody can answer but we'll be keeping an eye out for further news.
