Windowsblind 6 estimated ETA

With support for blur effects

Thursday, March 15, 2007 by JaLooNz | Discussion: WindowBlinds

Hi,

Anyone can tell me the estimated ETA of the version of Windowsblind with blur support? I am almost ready to put down the money for a Object Desktop subscription for 1 yr, but only if I can get the version with blur in time.

In fact, I believe the only 2 programs I will be using is Windowsblind and Iconpackager, so is there better offers than the Object Desktop package?

From the news on the front page:

Users who purchased WindowBlinds 5 after February 1st will receive WindowBlinds 6 free.

A beta of WindowBlinds 6 will be available for registered users shortly.

Does it apply for Object Desktop subscription? Sounds like its for the standalone retail version.

A subscription to Object Desktop is good for one year.  In that time you will get all updates and any new versions of software that is part of Object Desktop.

As an aside . . . "ETA" already has an "estimated". It's the E.

Yea, I caught that too. It's people put down etc, etc, which is so on and so on. And have you ever looked up the meaning of the word "nice". Check it out. They have changed it in the last few years, so try to find an older dictionary.

There is not a specific date for its release right now.  As I said if purchase a subscription to Object Desktop you will get all included updates including WB 6.  Also, if you just purchase WB 5.5 now, you will also receive the update.

bushbaby7: It will be 2007 not 2006

There will be discounted upgrades for those outside of the free upgrade window of course.  I would expect those would be $10, but that is just a guess as thats not my area.

But you are still not answering my question. I want to buy Object Desktop, not the standalone Windowsblind. If my subscription ends before Windowsblind with blur effects arrive, I have to renew it once more to get the primary feature I want.

shortly generally means less than a year from now.

If you purchase OD today then your subscription would run out in March 2008.
