It's not uncommon at all for software developers to have late releases.

The last version of lightwave was released 8 months late in a beta tester form, and now, 2.5 years LATER they are still adding promised features that should have been in it's release.

Zbrush announced zbrush 3.0, and then released IT 2 years later.

Daz talked about dynamic clothing and rigging for Daz studio almost 2 years ago as well.

Silo2's release went from "any day now" to about 8 months later.

Unreal Tournament 3 was originally titled UT2005... then UT2006... then UT2007.

Duke Nukem forever has had about 20 release dates, and has been in development hell now for almost 10 YEARS!

So poser pro is a little late.. I'd much rather see more bugs squashed, then be wating for a service release batch.

I think the poserverse finally realized that the world Is NOT perfect, and complicated software releases come out when they are done.. not because a specific date has occurred.

I think you just want it released so you can bitch and moan about missing features, or bugs. ;)

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
