First, let me say I think the choice you guys made was brave and gutsy.
Second, I wish you all the luck in the world. I hope your new venture succeeds.
Third, my prediction is that in the short term this will do well, and in the long term it will prove an unwise move. Eventually most people will move over to 4e, and leave the vestiges of 3e behind. I suspect in two-three years we will see someone like Necro buying out Paizo for pennies on the dollar.
But don't let that negative prediction drag anyone down. I genuinely hope I am wrong, since I have enjoyed a lot of Paizo products over the years, and know the people at Paizo are good people who are skilled creators.
Good Luck Paizo!
