A friend of mine working at Microsoft over the summer says that they are
continually producing updated versions, and he was of the opinion that the
version to be released to the public (3.1, if that's what they're calling it)
was finished and being manufactured.  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.
