Metacard crossgrade to Revolution

Jacques,

I may well use Rev to build the standalones in the end.  But I need 
to know I have the option :-)  So I will wait.  Is there any chance 
the bug is in the engine and not the IDE?  An incompatibility with 
the IDE somehow that they may have to fix in the engine?  This is my 
major concern regarding the Intel-Metacard-Standalone bug.  If it's 
only in the IDE I know it will be fixed :-)

Besides, they need to answer my questions about upgrading.  I may not 
get to do it at all :-(

My interpretation of their website offer is that I'd be paying full 
price minus $100, split over two years :-(  I was prepared for $299...
