This is exciting news! Obviously, the international (English) version
has a different engine than the German version that had been released 2
weeks earlier.

My German Fritz 5 engine is dated July 26, size 105.984 bytes

My beta 5.01 engine is dated October 27, size 106.496 (same size as your
release version!). So maybe the "US Fritz" is stronger than the German
version. Matthias has announced a 5.01 release with some UI improvements
for February AFAIR, so the differences will be vanished by then.
