You answered your own question. All they've said is Q4 2008, which can be assumed to be October-December 08'.

Heh, "last you heard" was mere days ago, so no there's no additional information yet. It's a brand new development.

No one knows.

Maybe they're waiting for the arc it's on now to finish so that they can absolutely animate it all without worrying about Togashi leaving it unfinished. HxH is absolutely popular in Japan, so I think it's more of a "when" question instead of an "if" question.

Interesting. This series started in 1999, correct? What year did the most recent episode air?

TV, 3/31/2001. Final volume of the OVA (Greed Island Final, which is terrible) 8/18/2004.

I consider the HxH franchise dead as of the end of OVA 1. Greed Island was bleh, and what I skimmed of the manga after that was just insultingly bad.

Still, for those 70 or so episodes where it's good, it's really good.

You do realize you're just about the only person on the planet that has a problem with that wording, no? They say "in stores now" when something is now in stores. It makes sense. Deal.
