Thought I would pass this along to anyone interested:

Flash Newsletter: Special releases for Mandriva Club members now
                  available!

Mandriva has decided to launch new distributions exclusively for
Mandriva Club members. Every two months, except when a full release is
due, a new distribution restricted to Club members will come out.

The first of these releases, named "Special Mandriva Club KDE 3.4" is
now available via Bittorrent, with HTTP/FTP mirrors on request. The
initial release is 32-bit and contains 6 CDs. An x86-64 version will
be released very soon!

This new "Special Mandriva Club KDE 3.4" version is based on the
Limited Edition 2005 which turned out to be a great success, with
several positive reviews. This special version is only available for
Club members, you will not find it on the Mandriva Store or in  other
channel.

KDE 3.4 Highlights at a glance:
    * Text-to-speech system with support built into Konqueror, Kate,
      KPDF and the standalone application KSayIt
    * Support for text to speech synthesis is integrated with the
      desktop
    * Completely redesigned, more flexible trash system
    * Kicker with improved look and feel
    * Better synchronization between 2 PCs
    * A new high contrast style and a complete monochrome icon set
    * An icon effect to paint all icons in two chosen colors,
      converting third party application icons into high contrast
      monochrome icons
    * Juk has now an album cover management via Google Image Search
    * KMail now stores passwords securely with KWallet... and much
      more


The next new version restricted to club members will be the x86-64
version and will come out within 15 days.

To get this "Special Mandriva Club KDE 3.4" - among other benefits -
you need to be a member of the Mandriva Club. Mandriva Club accounts
start at 11 euros / 12 USD per month.
