Yea, they've been saying this for months! A Statsci rep told me at the joint meetings last year that it would be out in October, it wasn't, and then they had a press release in late november or something and it still wasn't out. In any case, it's only $5000 for a single user
Oh, come on, lots of users do have copies out there; it has been shipping in the UK for a couple of months, and your prices bear no resemblence to those academics at least actually pay (and you are posting from an academic address). We know: we have paid for ours. I don't think unsubstantiated S-PLUS knocking on R-help is helpful.
