I didn't take these screenshots personally, but the person who did them for me was telling me how he was having some troubles getting it to connect to your servers. He was behind a firewall/proxy, however, so that could have made a difference. And I completely agree, these don't highlight some of the newer, better, Astra Profie features. Maybe if I could get an invitation to join the alpha myself I could do another article or an update and feature the Astra profile. (spike -at- bigblueball -dot- com) ;)

And you know something, I do believe you. It's just when all of the non-Astra features look pretty damn similar to the 3.x series, I was a little skeptical at first. Good to hear it straight from the source, though, thanks. I'll fix the article straightaway.
