Not sure how accurate this is, but Amazon (US) lists the following release dates for the 150-500 OS:

June 10th (Canon)
June 30th (Nikon)
July 15th (Sigma)

Sorry if this has been posted already.

Interesting.

I just acquired a used bigma from here, but had been wondering about the 150-500 OS. I had expected the OS lens to be a bit lighter and more compact, so happy with my decision. If I was buying new then the OS lens would get my cash (depending on the end product), but used bigmas could become a bit of a bargain.

No sign of the 150-500 yet. Asked the sales and said it will be $100+ more.

Anybody hear of an ETA for the new 18-125 OS? Any idea if it'll be improved over the original? I need to replace my 18-135 with something stabilized, and I'd like to keep most of the zoom range.
