I'd be tempted to suspect the rumor of having originatad with an
Apple decision to remove all non-UB *Apple* software from store
shelves.
While there hasn't been anything official, I believe this may only
affect the Apple branded software. However, we know that Apple is
working *very* quickly to get all of their apps UB.
By the time July rolls around, most of the Apple apps may be UB anyway.
I do not think there is a mandate to remove non-apple software from
the shelves - however, if there were, it would sure force the
developers to get their universal binaries done.... uh RS? :-)
Either way many Apple Specialists will continue to have a good
selection of software on their shelves ( http://
www.applespecialist.com ) if you cannot find what you need at other
locations.

Further, sources have learned that Apple is currently planning

in Universal Binary format. The policy is presumably designed
to
improve customer experience with new Intel-based Macs, as

Universal Binaries perform considerably better than PowerPC
software running under Rosetta on Apple's newest systems.
Of course MS and Adobe will likely escape this but it's not
good news
for anyone with products in an Apple store if it's true
