Some will wait, some wont wait, some will buy more some will buy less. No ones knows has soon release is (I think it is quite a few months away tet to be honest), or how much it will be. Also not everyone will actually get the upgrade at all, and a percentage may not get it for x months after its released. The way everyone is going on thinking that everyone will suddenly upgrade the day it is released is ridiculous (granted a percent of users will, but no way near the lot will). Also no one knows the price of the upgrade, no one knows the requirements yet, no one no how useful or useless previous items will be (granted backwards compatibilty is tehre, but just cus it will does not mean people will use it over the fancy new whatever). Too be honest the announcement was nice, but left too many unanswered questions (prob the idea I guess) that will have an effect on everything poser related or another and that is not good for a community - Curiuos really need to make an announcement saying where it will be 3, 6, more than 6 months etc. As always everything gets hyped up and people argue about this, that and the other, bottom line is Poser 5 will be able to do so much more than Poser 4 but it is not out yet, so if people want to wait until the release before getting anything for Poser 4 that is there choice, however they could be in for a long wait ... or perhaps not, that is the annoying bit.
