Microsoft has also delayed RTM for Windows XP Service Pack 3 to provide sufficient time to incorporate feedback from the beta testers. What was previously identified as wave 2 and 3 have now been combined into a single wave 2. Earlier, Microsoft said that languages support for Windows XP Service Pack 3 will be released in three waves. All languages will now be released in two waves. In addition, users of Windows XP Media Center Edition or Windows XP Tablet Edition will only be able to update to Service Pack 3 through Windows Update. That means you won't be able to buy or obtain a complete Windows XP Media Center Edition / Tablet Edition SP3 CD. 
Microsoft clarified that there will not be any integrated SP3 release for Windows XP Media Center Edition or Windows XP Tablet Edition. It will also include an expanded set of product keys for Windows XP Professional that were originally introduced in Windows XP SP2c. Windows XP Service Pack 3 will contain hotfixes and updates released since Windows XP SP2.
