maybe it's that not all divisions were making the move, or something
like that.
In any case, here's a followup email from Rich:
For pricing on Via Voice for Linux since the press article was

(not my doing):
Wizzard is in the process of setting up an accessible web site
to allow
developers to purchase it.
To ask about purchasing it, contact Dr. Alan Costilo:
