I've seen some roadmaps for SP4 for 4Q 06 or 1Q 07 (but I haven't seen
anything firmer than that.)

For what it's worth, the PE 2950 that I purchased a month ago was
ordered and came pre-loaded with SLES9 SP3. There were a few errata
listed but we haven't hit any of them. I was also able to run SLES 9 SP3
on a fully-populated X4600 box (SAS drives also) that Sun lent us.
