Ask them at "info@qks.com" and they'll send a bunch of stuff to you.
Or one of them (Buell or Simmons, probably) may answer here.

The "VisualAgents" product isn't out yet. It is apparently the
"SmalltalkAgents Lite" that was being advertised for $195 (as I
recall) in recent issues of "Object Magazine."

So a version of SmalltalkAgents for under $200 seems imminent.
