EJM> Time lines are important. Sorry but that's rubbish in this case. It doesn't make a penny worth of difference whether they bring out the beta tomorrow or this time next week. I'm sure they're trying to get the best possible programme out to the testers or else we'll have a rehash of all the moaners coming out of the woodwork yet again for another week or two. EJM> My question was a simple inquiry to find out where we are at right EJM> now. And my answer was just as simple. Be patient and wait for a, hopefully, fairly bug free beta which will be released when they are ready to release it. If they promised to release it, say, tomorrow and it came out full of bugs, you'd be up in arms saying "Why release a buggy version?" They are trying to avoid that, it seems to me, and yet people still complain. They can't win and I pity them because they have given us a quite wonderful, IMHO, product that does 95% of what people want 95% of the time, or am I just easily satisfied? -- Regards, Richard | The Bat! 3.0.2.10 & SpamPal | Windows XP (build 2600), version 5. 1 Service Pack 2 | Opera 8.00 build 7401 PGP public key: http://pgpkeys.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xCA93B5BE
