I'm not sure if I like the use of presently to mean presently. Sure it may be the right word, but then again it may confuse people who think you mean currently. And then where are you? Well right back here.
I've always used presently meaning "soon" in order to PISS PEOPLE OFF. Because it is entirely correct to use it in this way but the vernacular here in Canada has the somewhat opposite meaning. So you end up sounding like an ass, which is a perfectly fine thing to do IMHO. :)
