I don't want a release date, I just want a "heads up" when the time comes. Could you let us know when the beta test period is about to end and version 1.0 will start and the price will go up? I want to purchase it the day before.

1. Q: When I go to the LifeGlobe site and "meet the fish" there are still only the four I'm familiar with. Where is the new beta? Am I missing something (besides Monstro)?
A: According to Morg, this is not tricky, so I will let him explain this.

Just to clarify, I've also gone to the "test" address, and I find no test beta dated May 19. There is one for GA dated April 18, and one for Pop up Hitman dated May something.

…And that is why I say this is tricky.
But to make things as easy as possible: http://www.prolific.com/test/: Anytime you grab or talk about a version you find in Test/ (which we call a “test” version) you have “magic knowledge of things to come.” It is as if you are part of our team, and are working on the product. www.LifeGlobe.com: This is where new versions are released (which we call a “new” version). So, let’s “test” this: Ralph, you imply the most recent test has more bugs than previous versions, “name one” (this would be what beta testing is all about).

I know. It stops people from using it freely.

Thanks for the "tips," but I think I'll just wait until the "finished" version is released.
