Yes, the Beta version includes PM.  It's quite similar to 1.2 PM.  And no,
drivers do not have to be re-written.  As a matter of fact I'm using a
800x600 SuperVGA driver that was writter for OS/2 1.1.  It looks pretty
lousy, but it's better than 640x480.  I have no idea when the 2.0 SDK will
be available.
