Please forgive me if I am wrong but, I have a vague recollection (word of mouth only) that Sooloos 3 was being developed within Meridian.

However the product was "Still Born" for whatever reasons and maybe, just maybe, the internal parallel development / competition was considered superior.

Oh to have been the fly on the wall.

Just my thoughts
