I just received a mailer from Lotus today where they have included a
pamphlet announcing Lotus 123 for OS/2, Release 2.0 and also Freelance
Graphics for OS/2, Release 2. Release 2 refers to version numbers of 
Lotus products not OS/2. The phone number listed for information is
1-800-343-5414 (and 1-800-go-lotus for Canada.

Also, according to a flyer I received from IBM announcing the OS/2
Technical interchange conference in Arizona from Feb. 28 - Mar.3rd,
they are giving away copies of Lotus Freelance Graphics and CA-realizer
among others to all attendees. There are conference sessions devoted 
to Borland, CA,and Lotus. Among the products mentioned are Borland
C++, CA-Unicenter, dbFast, RET, Realizer, and C++.

It seems that good things are getting closer to reach.
