How many cards will be in the 2008 Topps set (series 1 and 2); and when will factory sets be release

I FINALLY was able to get my Topps set run up to 2006 thanks to part of my birthday money, and I plan on getting the 2007 factory set (the Red Sox version so my wife can have those five bonus BoSox prospect cards) as soon as I can find one for a good price. That being said, do we yet know how many cards will be in the 2008 Topps set (counting both series 1 and 2; I'm not interested in the Update set)? Also, when are the factory sets typically available?

    It seems to me they came out around August last year, as they were released a couple months before the Christmas box version....or was that 2006?

    According to SMCCI, the factory sets are going to be released in June, and I hope Topps will again make a Red Sox version.
