Folks,

I suppose that this question should be directed at 
MathWorks Sales, but I suspect that a lowly student such as 
myself would be unlikely to get a timely response.

It seems that MATLAB R2008a was released on March 1...

t_features.html?s_cid=HP_RH_2008a

But the MATLAB Student Version remains at R2007a...

I am impatiently waiting to dig into the new features, most 
particularly object orient programming.

Does anyone know when MATLAB Student Version R2008a will be 
released?

A follow on... Having just paid $100 for the R2007a, does 
anyone know if an upgrade to R2008a will be available?

Kind regards,

Hui
