The release of "XE3" reduced the number of editions for Embarcadero Prism to just one: the Professional edition, which means Embarcadero Prism is from now on no more than RemObjects' Oxygene, and in fact a bit less. Embarcadero Prism XE2.5 is the last version that comes in an Enterprise edition with DataSnap support (keep that in mind when you upgrade your project to XE3)...
Embarcadero Prism is part of RAD Studio, and no longer sold separately. Embarcadero Prism is licensed from (and in fact the exact equivalent of "Oxygene for .NET" from) RemObjects Software. However, if you purchase the Oxygene product from RemObjects (or one of its partners and resellers like me), you not only get Oxygene for .NET, but also Oxygene for Java (which includes support for Android), as well as the new project codenamed "Nougat" (currently in beta) that allows Oxygene to produce native OS X and iOS applications (iPhone, iPad and more). Note that Oxygene for .NET, Oxygene for Java and "Nougat" all share the same Oxygene language and compiler. The language that differs a bit from the Delphi languages, but shares the same ObjectPascal foundation.
Project "Nougat" is currently in beta, and is scheduled to be released in Q2 2013. Beta 2 from Project "Nougat" has just been made available, and can be downloaded by anyone with a current license of Oxygene.
You can purchase a New User license of Oxygene for a special price of 399 EURO (retail price is 499 US$), or an upgrade (renewal) from Oxygene, RAD Studio XE2 or Prism XE2.5 for 299 Euro (retail price US$ 399). If you want to cross-grade from Delphi XE2, the price is 349 EURO. Note that these EURO prices are valid when buying from me, and for all prices you may need to add 21% VAT where applicable (which is the case for curstomers from The Netherlands, or customers from the EU without a company name + VAT number).
