I've made no comment on the issue until now, and I'm well aware that
John wouldn't have done this without being around on the weekend as he
often is.  Still, there are several questions that it would be nice to
have answers to:

* Beyond those listed, what features are in the upgrade?   I wouldn't
  normally be one to complain about price, but it does just a touch
  steep as it is.  I don't personally have any particular need for USB2.
  On the other hand, here in the land of cheap hardware, I can get an
  FX2500 for $40 or so.
* How about VAT-exclusive ordering?
* It's still not real clear how this relates to the source release.
  I've speculated on this, but of course I cannot be certain.
* Are there any other future plans that Castle would care to tell us
  about to wrt to RISC OS features, that might make such an investment
  worthwhile?
