We are now in the throes of Summer 2009, and it appears as if Intuit has decided to celebrate the arrival of warm weather by removing all references to Quicken for Mac 2009 (which were previously found all over the company's website). Well, unless you live in another hemisphere, winter has come and gone. In September, however, Intuit said that the software had " required significant engineering and quality testing" and the company needed "some extra time to get it right." The ship date was moved to the winter of 2008. Users could track their cash flow, download info from banks, track taxes, and even create budgets, and was expected to launch as a beta by the fall of 2008. Intuit first showed off its plans for Quicken Financial Life for Mac (the then working title) in January of 2008, hailing it as a complete rewrite of Quicken 2007 for Mac with new and better features. However, after at least one delay, the software now appears to be MIA more than a year and a half after it was introduced. The software, meant to be a "complete rewrite" of Quicken for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, was showcased at the Macworld Expo 2008 and originally expected to ship that year. All references to Quicken for the Mac 2009 have disappeared from Intuit's website, leaving users wondering when-if ever-the software will launch.
