Apologies if this isn't the correct forum for this, but the RPG forums seem mostly oriented toward computer games.
I'm considering picking up the 3rd edition Monster Manual II. I've looked at it in stores and it looks like it has some good creatures in it, but of course you can only look at so much before the clerks get upset.

So I'm wondering what people who've already picked it up think of it.
Also, does anybody know if WotC is planning to do a "3.5" version of this book anytime soon? It wasn't mentioned on their site, but that may not mean anything and I'd hate to pick it up just before a new edition came out. TIA.
