Hopefully it will be possible to download SP2 on the same date as RTM since that was the case too with SP1.
It's the same thing. RTM is released to manufacturers first, like what the name suggest. I mean whether it's released to manufacturer first or public.
Both RC and RTM. So watch out for "fake" RTM binaries that claim to be the actual RTM binary. We will try to get more details (i.e. file size, etc.) of the RC and RTM binaries as we get closer to their respective release dates.

"Escrow Build" Google is your friend... more so when the best result is a CNN story from 1999 about Windows 2000 (which it seems I cannot post due to being rather new here) which says in part: Kapeesh?
Win-Vista SP2 probably awaiting more beta tester for 7 Could be that Windows Vista service pack 2 could very well benefit from the Microsoft communitys' ability to cull some revelations from the host of Windows 7 beta testers finds since that new operating system is supposed to be based primarily on Windows Vista anyway. I'll just bet that they drag their feet to see what revelations present themselves, to see just what might be supprisingly found-out in the interim, while they apprise themselves of all the bugs they find that they did not realize they had inherited from the Windows 6 family - into the Windows 7 realm. By dragging their feet, they may well get some insight into some bugs that they didn't even know existed in Vista, until they allowed people to try and break the new Windows 7 operating system - thereby exposing some of the legacy flaws which would've been inherent from the base of Windows 6 (Vista) and maybe even back as far as Windows XP or 2000.
