This interesting note just in from EP:

Hey Woody.

About that mysterious KB976902 update for Windows 7 you mentioned a few months ago.

It’s back.Â MS released KB97902 on Jan. 11, 2011 as noted here:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/976902

Much of the files in KB976902 are version 6.1.7601.17514 dated 11/20/2010.

Hmmm, isn’t the RTM or final release of Windows 7 SP1 supposed to have a build number of 7601.17514.101119-1850?

I think that build of SP1 has already been leaked on the web.Â A bunch ofÂ Win7 users in this Windows Sevenforums.com thread have already obtained the “leaked”Â version of Win7 SP1:
