The Parallels for Mac Update Beta 3 (build 3106) is now out. They have a whole page of the new and updated features here. Probably the key enhancements are support for USB 2.0 and better Boot Camp support.

Transporter Beta 3 is now included as well. It allows you to migrate your existing Windows PC to a Parallels Virtual Machine as well as convert VMware and Virtual PC virtual hard disks to Parallels virtual machines. You can migrate over a network, locally or to some type of removable media.

Parallels has been a boon to those people that needed some Windows compatibility but preferred to use Apple products. Nice to see they are putting in the effort to keep up the timely upgrades.
