Some of the under-the-hood improvements they've made are incredible! Blocks and Grand Central Dispatch will introduce a new era in app speed and efficiency. I've been playing around with them for over a week now and I'm *giddy* that blocks (lambdas/closures) have been added to C/C++/Obj-C/Obj-C++.

Bedding down the codebase is a smart *investment* in the future; while it might cost some short term revenue, in the long term it will be a smart move. For me at least, the under the hood improvements leading to a performance gain for just $30 will be enough to persuade me to upgrade. I completely agree with this article.
