    You can take money out of an ISA at any time (subject to their Ts&Cs) without any tax liability. Once it is out, any interest accruing in your current account will be taxed, though. Remember you can't put it back in again, although you can start a new ISA for 2008/09.

    No tax implications on the money coming out of the ISA. But it won't be 'short term' ..... as you can't replace the money. You can only put it back as part of your 08-09 allowance?
    If you want to test the depth of the water .........don't use both feet !
