I think they're waiting for us to call, or better yet, just send money.

I've been using FullWrite since it first came out and I've been very happy 
with it, but I'm now having serious doubts about Ashton-Tate's commitment 
to this product. They took forever to get this upgrade out and it has only 
one major new feature. I'm also disappointed that conversion to other word 
processing formats is done in a seperate program. Also, they won't return calls about demonstrating the program for user's groups.

I've seen a couple of demos of WordPerfect 2.0 lately. This version looks 
more powerful than the previous and it finally looks like a Mac program. 
As soon as it comes out, we're going to buy a wad of copies for our office 
staff and for any others in the department that want one.

Has anyone out there heard anything about when WordPerfect 2.0 will be 
released? We're waiting on availability of the program before ordering a 
bunch of new Macs.
