We list products that we will be receiving in several months so that way espresso enthusiast have time to read their specs and build up a desdire to purchase one.

On the edit product page you can check off a box that says this item is not for sale and you can write a custom message like "for informational purposes only" or "coming soon in 200X"

Our problem is that there is no way to search that in PC and having that feature would be very handy to us.

I agree... Sometimes items are on backorder and we use the not for sale feature and put something like... "will be available February 2008" but if you forget about it that item will never be activated again.

I have a store that needed the ability to place a rebate message and link (to a PDF), and it had to be date-sensitive. We added the necessary columns to support the link and the from/to dates, plus logic on the product detail page to cause the link to appear only during the specified period.
