Questions about Qatar 787 Ramp Up

Can anyone update us on the "expected" ramp-up of 787s at Qatar Airways?

The last estimate I saw was first delivery in Q1 2012. Still true? I realise this is dependent upon Boeing as well. Any further estimates on delivery rate - how many "expected" in 2012 and 2013? Any initial 787 routes named?

At what point would QR start to hire onto the 787? Have pilots already begun training for it? I had heard that a 787 sim was already being prepared in Doha.

Cheers for any updates. I guess we should assume that any previous schedule is questionable with Boeing delays likely.
