No guarantees on this, though, and customer support probably knows better, since my friend isn't working on that project. (Info about a week old now.) I guess the upgrade will be nice, although I love version 3.0 and use it regularly. WILL it be free to purchasers of version 3.0? I hope so. I also hope they include stickers for the new Mac keyboards; I wrote to them about this, no answer yet. Adam
