Understood. We plan on upgrading the edge gateways that pay people's
salaries in Q3 2007. At this point, 1.4 is in limited pre-production on a
few boxes, but has not been authorized for production use yet. We're still
waiting for the code to age a bit more. As the old commercial says "We'll
sell no wine before it's time!"
