I've been using Adobe Bridge to add tags to documents I use for my research and would LOVE to have something like that on DT - a basic list on one side of the tagged words with how many documents are tagged per category.

There is no new release yet - it's still a beta. The UI is improved, but tagging is NOT changed at all. Apparently they haven't implemented the new tagging features yet. So, for now I will use Receipt Wallet, Yojmbo, and Evernote to manage my links, pdf files, and scans and hope DT gets its act together to warrant an upgrade payment.

You mentioned tagging support, but I couldn't find anything about it on the "new features" listing. (Due to my personal ban on beta software I unfortunately cannot look for it firsthand...) Lack of tagging has been the one thing keeping me from shelling out the dough for Devon, but this would definitely lead to a purchase if added. Any confirmation on your part? It’s finally here!

Already, it looks like the upgrade cost will be a no-brainer. Amen to that: the new release looks wonderful; I’m anxious to fall in love again with DT.
