I feel like someone just wished on the Monkey's Paw. "You wanted a concept album...you didn't say what kind.

Achtung Baby is a concept album.
really though, should be interesting what this EP is all about. i'm still leaning towards that it will be all live songs but you never know.

Didn't McGuiness use the words "I would guess" in talking about new album early 2011?
I mean, I'll happily take even that from him, since he would know, but I'm still hesitant to say "confirmed" (despite my earlier freak out of joy).

I KNEW it! I knew if I believed and was sincere and waited patiently for The Great Pumpkin, he'd come to my pumpkin patch and bring me a new U2 album.

Your favorite U2 song? As in you like it better than all other U2 songs?

What do you mean? That there's nothing to what Amazon is showing and McGuinness saying possibly early 2011 is flat-out wrong?
WAIE being a new "first single" of sorts for SOA, to be released early next year.

I don't know about the "quasi-first single" thing. I'm going with "live versions of the new songs from the tour" and then whatever this album McGuiness mentioned in - possibly - early 2011.
I don't necessarily think the two things have to be all that connected. They could just be two separate things.

A number of artists in the download age have released EPs or track by track releases before the album proper. Chris Cornell and the Flaming Lips did it in 2009. It seems however that it becomes a little anti-climatic.

This sounds all sorts of awesome. And it seems so much more genuine than before. Thank you, fat man with lots of money who doesn't lie.

Semi-possible tracklist out of pure speculation:
1. Stingray Guitar with Beautiful Day (as one track or separated into two)
2. Glastonbury
3. Boy Falls From The Sky
4. Hold Me, Thrill Me, Kiss Me, Kill Me
Here's my logic. Stingray Guitar will probably not be on the next album (unless there is some completed form that we do not know about) and it is followed by the inclusion of a hit song. Glastonbury seems like a fun song sort of like the Party Girl of the 2000's and might also be left off the album. Boy Falls From The Sky might not either. So there are three new tracks to get people to buy this EP while also saving material for the next album. Finally, HMTMKMKM was a new addition to the tour in Europe and would make sense on a release like this.

Is it plagiarism if an article is written collectively by an entire forum?

That would be my worst nightmare.
I pre-ordered it anyway so I can get emails from Amazon as the status changes.
