I have been reading this thread over the past few days and boy am I
confused!!???!!

White knight 11 is announced with all kinds of new features,
but is immediately flamed for not supporting the Communications Toolbox.
They (Norman Goodger) reply that 
	1) The communication toolbox is not released yet.
	2) White Knight will probably support the toolbox when it does
	become widely available.

So ... what is the problem???  You get a GREAT product now AND later
support for the standards.  Also, the upgrade pricing put together by
Freesoft seems to be very fair.
