I think the delays may have had something to do with the Kauderer Group coming on the scene. I don't think the KG were involved with Spooz at the beginning of the year, but they now seem to be involved very closely at the moment - they are instrumental in the setup of 141 Capital, and that obviously has taken a lot of time and attention.
I find this quote from Paul quite interesting and may explain something about the delay for the release of SpoozTools 2.0 :
"Our investors want us to have a New York presence before product launch because they want us international as quickly as possible. It has everything to do with grabbing market share possible as quickly as possible. This stifles competition due to brand recognition in targeted market segments, which in turn lowers the investment risk in Spooz. We believe that, in this case, quickly acquiring market share is far more important then time to market"
