A quick check of the website has no update.
As for the Leno clip, a find two things interesting. I'm glad he told his side of the story as I think he's being unfairly bashed in all of this. He doesn't want to give up his job, and NBC won't let him out of his contract. What's a guy to do? This is a matter of suits making dumbass decisions, and then making even dumber decisions to fix the original dumbass decisions.
The other thing is that even though Letterman has been taking shots at Jay, the intern jokes are completely uneccessary IMO. Yeah, he did it, he admitted to it on air, and the waves calmed down, and the world continued to spin. Jay got his shots in at the time, and that was that. Now that Letterman is taking shots at something current, Leno is pulling the who "yeah, well you did this...". Bush League, IMO.
It's making for entertaining TV, but we all know that in 3 months, no one will give a crap.

Letterman has made jokes about other celebrities and their infidelities and stuff like that, I think he opened him up to those in all honesty
And NBC said Conan was going on vacation after this week anyway (they said this a few weeks ago), so I think they are just using it as a time to end the show.
