That is great, but don't you guys plan fixing issues with existing 3.0 first? Don't get me wrong it is a great product, but so far I have found so many minor bugs that it just looks strange that you start next cycle before making sure the existing product is anywhere near being good... I have seen quite a few posts with issues (including my own), which nobody even looking to address. Just seems bizarre...
