OK, many of you will probably be aware of the special upgrade offer that NewTek are making (for those that aren't, they're offering an upgrade to LW[8] as a download when released, along with the boxed version of DFX+ for around $495 - which seems like astounding value).

Now, before I even contemplate this upgrade (having not seen LW8 at all, and knowing nothing about it's intended feature set/UI/etc, is there anyone out there in the community that has (maybe someone involved with the beta program) that can verify whether for a hobbyist who is happy with the current release of 7.5c if there is anything in 8 that makes it a 'must have' product?

C'mon - details please...

(and I realsise that any of you with info may be under NDA, but any hints as to the new LW would be appreciated).

Oh and BTW, anyone thinking of taking this offer up have until the end of June to get it.
