Ok I'm one of the early adopters so I get that, I replaced my older Orbi with the new AX Wifi6 and I really like the speed increase. However I need another satelite (yes it's a giant house) and I need Circle for my kids. We need some dates for when these options/features will be released. Yes I know, early adopter pain. I'm just asking to tell us when to expect these things.

NG doesn't give out dates when new stuff or releases will be made avaialble before hand. When NG is ready, they do it and will be annouced by NG. You'll just need to keep an eye out here in the forums or on NG product support page for when they become announed and available.
Circle and or Armor will be follow on additions in FW. We saw that it was about a year or so before NG added Circle and Armor to Orbi AC. Hopefully it won't take them that long, however it's up to NG. Again, you'll have to wait for this feature to be added.
I don’t think that answer is good enough for a customer who lost significant features in an upgrade. New product I get that, but to extend existing services then dates and commitments should be published. Hurry up and wait isn’t a good answer to customers who have a choice on where to spend their money.
I am happy with two additional RBS 50 satellites I got it very cheap from the big wearhouse store. I am using the extra RBR 50 router for my vacation home. The satellites worked wired to my RBK 852 system. I have not tested RBS 50 wirelessly after yesterday's firmware update. I did not see wireless support in the release notes for RBS 50 or RBS 50Y outdoor yet.
Still no updates. Bought months ago.. still can’t buy another satellite and still no circle or armor. This is not a good customer experience, get your act together.
NG may not chose to make RBS as a separate item. There only currently availalbe in the Kits.
Circle and Armor may not be seen immediately either. It took NG several months after release of the Orbi AC to get Circle and Armor. I think it was about 1.5-2years. It was a while. These also presented there own issues into Orbi.
