Recent Rosetta Stone Upgrades to Version 3

According to a press release from Rosetta Stone, they have updated Filipino (Tagalog), Latin, Turkish and Vietnamese to Version 3, which means they will have the same amount of material (levels 1,2 and 3) as more popular languages like Spanish and Mandarin Chinese.

I think this is a big step forward. These languages have very few published multi-media materials to study with, and I think it's great that they are given the same consideration as more popular languages.

There are still a few that haven't been upgraded yet. Thai, Pashto, and Welsh come to mind.

Rosetta Stone Version 3 is now available in 25 languages including: Arabic, Chinese
(Mandarin), Dutch, English (British), English (American), Filipino (Tagalog), French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Irish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latin, Persian (Farsi), Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Spanish (Latin America), Spanish (Spain), Swedish, Turkish and Vietnamese.
