Bill McEwen has posted a new Executive Update, where he hints that there might be a strong possibility of an AmigaOS 4.0, if sales of 3.9 are good enough, and announces that there will be more details and announcements at the Amiga World show in Cologne next month.

New Executive Update : Comment 14 of 64ANN.lu

I really do not _like_ to think and say this but OS3.9 really stinks.
If there are some good new features they have not announced so far,
well I'd be glad. But for now, OS3.9 is indeed nothing more than a 3.5
and some stuff added that was publically available before. Comment 2
has really said it all. Who needs stuff like this too-bright CD
player!?
Even if OS3.9 had a bazillion of bugs fixed, it would not be worth
more than 10 bucks or so. Btw what they done to Boingbag2!? I am
heavily disappointed by HAAGE&PARTNER this time especially considering
the fact that they originally intended to call this very version 4.0!!
(See german print-mag AmigaOS!)... And Bill McEwen says we would "be
very proud of" 3.9.. What exactly?
- I do not need Moovid (cannot play "real" movies (divx etc) anyways)
- I do not need Zip-tools (CDRs have won)
- I do not need a CD player on my miggy (got a HW one and mp3
software!)
- I prefer MiamiDX over Genesis
- I am happy with good ol' Toolmanager
- I use Vinced anyways
Basically the only things thats good at this 3.5 and 3.9 stuff are the
glowicons... Erm they weren't publically available before, were
they?! :-)
And to those people that are willing to buy 3.9 because of the fact
that they want to see a 4.0: you must be really (stooopid|rich|both).
BTW there is a link to a new screenshot of 3.9 somewhere on
www.amiga-news.de. This is really ridiculous! A workbench with dozens
of icons on it and a CD player, AmigaAMP and a startbar.. Ts ts, I
_really must_ have this OS3.9 _now_ ... NOT!
