Hello, Your list is far from complete. I would recommened you take a look at the following paper Goovaerts, P. 2009. Geostatistical software. In M.M. Fischer and A. Getis, editors, *Handbook of Applied Spatial Analysis: Software Tools, Methods and Applications.* Springer-Verlag, Berlin, Germany, in press.<http://home.comcast.net/%7Epgoovaerts/A7-June.pdf> that is available at http://sites.google.com/site/goovaertspierre/pierregoovaertswebsite/publications/book-chapters that provides an overview and comparison of functionalities in a series of geostat software, most of them listed on ai-geostat website.
