Many of those features will not be a part of 3.0, work on them is progressing.
 
3D drivers for the R300 series would be a prime example (they just haven't been completed yet).
 
But the development team has a strong record of acheiving the goals they set out for themselves and MorphOS continues to be the most impressive NG OS available.

From what I've heard, R200 acceleration improvements will be significant.
And 3D drivers, while not ready for 3.0, are being developed.
 
As to a shift from PPCs, "when/if we're done with PPC" is pretty telling.
I'm not ready for this move myself, and like David, I would love to see G5 support.
