Well I know that some of this notion of "secrecy" comes from the fact that the HH version one sort of faded without explanation. I can understand why Selig himself would not publicly discuss or elaborate on whatever did not work out with Horizon. He probably had hopes up to a point in time of it working out. As for why Horizon never indicated anything other than lowering the price at some point, I don't know, but the upcoming new version is not in collaboration with Horizon. From what it sounds like to me, this is a new venture and not just your usual step from one version to another.

As for not yet releasing more detail about version two, I don't see what is so unusual with that. Closer to the release date he/they will say more.
