So whats the status with these two items? Buzz seems to have died down.

it's cl2 and gdrive is just a rumor

Now that CL2 has been confirmed with the screenshots the buzz has died down a bit. We definately know it is coming. We have no idea when. But it *is* going to come.

GDrive is at the other end of the scale. It is completely unconfirmed although there is some very suspicious evidence for its existance. We don't know if it will ever come, and I don't think anyone expects it very soon.
