To my understanding, it's kind of a preview release.  That doesn't mean 
they aren't willing to charge thousands of dollars for pro & enterprise 
versions.  It just means many of the features are missing.  Ergo, it's 
still 'on its way' in my book.

(Among the missing features is a clear path from VCL to either CLX or wx 
widgets, I'm told.  Haven't had the time to test it myself though.)
