RSN, but by all means get started with the R2 widgets.  Updating your
applications will take much less time than you'll spend experimenting
with ideas and finding the appropriate ways to use what's there.

As an aside, when R3 initially ships, the two larger widget sets from HP
and Sony will still be using the R2 Intrinsics (a bugfixed copy of which
will be in contrib/Xhp).  They wanted more time to do QA, etc.  We are
promised that updated versions will be available soon but we can't delay
the rest of R3...
