Does anyone know what format of live audio will be available at that link? If it's only RealAudio I won't be able to listen 
It's always RealAudio.
But replay of the conference will probably be on http://www.space-multimedia.nl.eu.org
Usually in some windows media format.
Yes, I upload the audio file tomorrow between 6.00 and 7.00 hour (GMT)

Shame on you! Now sit quietly like the rest of us and wait for the morsels to leak out.

What's listed on L2?
Nothing much. Just the new NET date, X-ray images of the connector, macro photos of the connector pins, the results of chemical testing, and the time-series response of the circuits during testing.
: Really, if this is the kind of stuff you're interested in seeing, you should consider joining for the roughly 27 cents a day Chris charges. Chris really does a great job of keeping that area current and full of interesting information. Even so, it's well-organized and so you can spend as little or as much time as you want looking around.
We're fortunate to have Chris and this site.

That would be if they do a tanking test. If no tanking test, NET date is Feb. 2.

And we've been told for a while now that a tanking test is very likely.

Jan 10 is off the table completely, has been for some time.
It's going to be either:
Feb 2 - if they decide not to do a tanking test.
Feb 8 - if they do a tanking test.
Jan 21 is when they will decide if to do a tanking test or not.

L2 information points to STS-122 in earlish Feb:
And we'll be following the PRCB live.
http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/content/?cid=5322
Nice X-Ray image in there!
Only about a month to launch if the plan holds. I think we can all live with that. Great work by the engineers working the troubleshoot.

We'll use that article above as one stop quick view. The basic "need to knows" are in there.
In the interim, I'll write up a normal article which will go deeper into status.
(And thanks Lee for the comment).

Chris, any word yet on how that might affect following shuttle flights and how far can Atlantis slip before impacting the HST mission?

Remember that it's not only Atlantis that has to be ready for HST, but Endeavour also has to be ready in case a rescue mission is needed. If my calculations are correct (based on 117 processing days from OPF roll-in after its mission to rollover to the VAB for mating) STS-123 (Endeavour) would have to launch before the Soyuz Ex-17 cutout in late March / early April in order to keep HST targeted for Aug.

FAWG manifest re-alignment is likely to be a while off yet.

STS-123 (Endeavour) would have to launch before the Soyuz Ex-17 cutout in late March / early April in order to keep HST targeted for Aug.
The "cutout" is more likely to coincide with the ISS crew handover/rotation itself; anik's schedule has the new crew launch on April 8 and the current crew returning on April 19th. Past history suggests deconflicting dockings/undockings, so they'd need to undock before the new crew arrived (like with STS-115) or wait until after the current crew returns (as STS-124 was on the calendar).

John Shannon is doing the teleconference.
Two more weeks of testing on the ET-125 external connector.
Confirms the soldering of the pins on the connector.
Confirms new hardware on the way to KSC.
Confident they are addressing the problem.
Shannon says they are protecting Jan 24, but unlikely. More likely to be Feb 2 to 7 <--watching Progress and the range on the 7th.
Schedule takes us to the Feb 2. If things go really well they can skim it down to Jan 24, and move to the right as they repair.
