Grrrrrrr.Stop speculating people!LOL.Daz and everyone working for them are stand up men and women,so why say what will happen until it comes out?I would rather they take their time and release it later,with a minimum amount of bugs,than what CL did and release P5 with all that mess to go along with it.

Farside did make a speculate statement about the length of the public beta and Kelderek made what I intrepret as a humorous comment.  But the rest is not speculation.  Steve K. already informed the Platinum Club users that when we get the program it will be in a "final alpha stage", and DAZ is confident "that the transition from final alpha to initial public beta will occur within only a matter of weeks."  Steve also stated that the PC members have a "slightly larger responsibility or 'oppurtunity' to help DAZ get this program ready for public beta."  The statements are from a post that Steve K. mane in the PC only area of the DAZ Forums.
And the statements about the deadlines and the "4 days and counting" statement are true.

And not for nothing,why in the world would any of us expect it to be free?Are you high?LOL.If Daz releases a quality,functioning,WORKING product,(which I am sure they will),then they of course have every right to sell it.I will be the FIRST to buy.Now everyone take a deep breath and be glad we at least will have an alternative(addition,maybe)to P5,which I want to love,but it just is so messed up.Again,I have faith,someday,CL will do the right thing.In the meantime,I believe Daz always has had quality items at very fair prices.I for one can wait for the Daz Program,as I know it will be be great:)

Why would we expect it to be free???  Because as I said, they already stated here.
