I received an email today stating this:

On January 22, 2009, we mailed you a notice that we have approved this I129F PETITION FOR FIANCE(E). I'll be damned! I figured at least another 2-3 months..... Just keep the faith out there, as they seem to be approving some fairly fast. By the way, I was number 106 on Igor's list at the approval time.......
