The web page for the preview link given in the announcement page says this:

"The preview grid is for testing purposes only. While user information is fetched from the main grid, all currency, content, land, and other transactions are transitory. Updates made on the preview grid will not be applied to the main grid. All users will have a starting amount of L$5000. As with objects, attachments, clothing, etc., any updates to a resident's account (including monetary transactions) on the preview grid will *not* be reflected on the main grid.

The preview environment is transitory and for testing purposes only!"

This is not true and any changes you make will be permanent and any money spent will go away!! This is a main grid mini-update not a separate preview and you can lose money and property!!! Linden Labs needs to be careful what they put on that website and take the 5 minutes it would take to update the correct information on how the preview works and what effects it could have instead of just changing the version number. LL should be held responsible for any monetary losses incurred by people believing this is a separate preview because this is what they have been told by an official web-page of SL.
