Well, Jasmine's posted their DriveWare version 1.40--the version you
mention--on CompuServe.  I downloaded it, and have installed it.  I can't
tell a bit of difference in speed on my Plus.  It's not very obvious if
there _is_ a speed increase.  (What I can't really understand is, why are
they charging $20 for it if they're also giving it away free?  $5-$7.50,
maybe, for shipping and handling, I could see.)  I have noticed some
strange behavior in the Finder lately, relating to inserting and ejecting
floppies--suddenly, the Finder is having trouble closing files on
floppies.  It's not too pervasive, though, so I'm not worried (yet).
 
Yes, I've com-clicked on Word's icon inside its info box.  Cute show. 
Wish they'd have given their last names, though.  :-)
