OK, you're right... no plans to upgrade something from which they make no
money and have no competition.  I suspect most companies would do the same.
The promise of a new browser for a new OS is a feature of that new OS, just
as most any new feature is part of an upgrade. Would you ask Macromedia to
backwards incorporate Flash Forms or CFCs in CF4.5? Would you go back and
add features to your already existing websites for free? MS already has in
place a plan for upgrading bugs, and does so regularly.  What is it that
you're looking for?

They had no plans to upgrade it without attaching it to an OS, which of
course can't be applied to anybody not running that OS. That is exactly what
I meant by apathy due to lack of competition.

I also suspect the content of the update will be in part driven by the
competition.

"...this simply demonstrates that without a significant threat to mindshare,
MS will not improve IE."

That's an incorrect statement. MS already had plans to upgrade it, although
at a later date and in a newer product.
