I haven't found a specific time frame from announcement to EOS, but
usually about 8-12 months ahead of time. But they do support the
product for 5 years past EOS, so that is pretty nice to depend on. 

For the RPS 675
EOL was 4/16/2007
EOS was 10/15/2007
End of Support is 10/13/2012

You won't find to much pre-announcement of EOL, as it is usually keyed
to new product announcements, and nobody will pre-announce a product
announcement.. :)

If you see a new product in the same line as the old one, then an EOL
could be on its way for the old one at that time.
