Today at the Microsoft Dynamics GP 2013 Technical Airlift event for partners in Fargo, Dynamics GP product managers announced that the GP 2013 beta will be available today on PartnerSource. And they confirmed that they plan to deliver the release for general availability in December.

As GP professionals gathered this key launch event for many broad strokes and quite a few details were already well known and highly anticipated - a new web client framework, named databases, dozens of new features, new pricing, and a plan to get it released before the end of the year.

And to Microsoft's credit, they opened up today's event by encouraging attendees to push the information to social media. Those with enough dexterity and multi-tasking capabilities did just that, tweeting their way through a keynote that dove into feature highlights, reviewed already known updates, and confirmed the beta and general availability plans for GP 2013. The Dynamics GP experts in the audience tell much of the story from their seats at the event. Here are some of the most interesting bits to come out, 140 characters at a time:
