Apple Treats iWork.com beta as a beta!

I can't remember the last time Apple did anything new with the iWork.com beta. It may have been the day it announced the availability of the iWork.com beta. I'm not sure.

So imagine my surprise when I got an email from Apple today saying, "Hey! Guess what! We did something with the iWork.com beta!"

They were - of course - less expressive and more descriptive in their missive:

Dear iWork.com beta member,

 We're pleased to announce the availability of new features and enhancements to iWork.com.
