Hi Victor.

Well, I don't know. You said you almost own the market already. The version you are planning to release will take away the possibility of the few competitors to work. It sounds a bit unfair to me. But I'm probably wrong, so I guess this is something you will have to think about a bit deeper yourself.

Sorry if I had the wrong impressions on this.

Abraços.
Ivan
