DirectX 9.0C is released on the 26th.

Microsoft's page

WinXP SP2 shouldn't be far behind; MS is not openly releasing DX9.0c until SP2 is ready.

no idea. I installed it, but haven't noticed anything different. Maybe stability and feature fixes that are not apparent yet?

Big thing is Shader Model 3.0 support {Nvidia 6800 series cards} and Shader Model 2.0b.
