Overestimation is Preferred

wb6bna, I'm with you.

My case, when I ask about a release date, the response is usually something like "Please be patient; we're working as fast as we can". As much as I appreciate the cordiality of such a response, it's pretty much useless. Obviously when the product is ready, it's going to be released or the company doesn't make any money. We can infer that the product isn't ready.

What we need is a ballpark time ( for our own reasons.) Since a "ballpark time" is indeed provided, we need for it to be updated, or it is frustrating. I have no doubt that MTU is full of smart computer literate people. Why is it so hard to type in a new date when this is warranted? Make it two weeks later than actually expected. Or even a month. That way, people aren't putting things off in expectation of the updated product. (Which quite understandably doesn't come on time, or even close)
