Just got my select renewal letter and in it, it says "...as we hope to
make some Select features available to Iyonix users during 2008"

Seems something is happening.

As an aside if you have a select subscription it covers up to 10
computers. So for my 5 machines its costs 20 ukp for each copy of the
OS - a bargain really.

As I hope people will also press Iyonix Ltd and RISCOS Open Ltd about
when the next full release of RISC OS 5 is coming out !!
