Default How realistic is 'September 09' as a date for NR PAYG?

This date is still being bandied around, even by Southeastern ticket
staff. Yet as far as I can see only Southern stand any chance of being
ready in time (neoprene-cloaked Oyster readers at all stations now).
Southeastern have so far done nothing towards installing equipment, and
I've yet to hear of anything binding being signed between the Southern
TOCs and TfL. Have I missed something, or is there no chance of
Southeastern and SWT being ready for PAYG before the end of the year?

One barrier at Bromley South has suddenly acquired a bit of sticky paper
saying "Oyster Cards Only", although of course it may just be a bit broken!
