nexon wont release perm pet?

Well, as of GM Oopia's blog, we now have permanent pets confirmed on our radar for next patch. Except we all saw it coming anyways. I think permanent pets, depending on price, could be excellent; it allows me to go inactive on one of my characters without logging back on one day with my pet dying after using it only a few times; but the real problem of money spending isn't coming from here, but pet equips. I'm going to have to agree with you all and say that this is, for the most part, a fail if they don't include any permanent pet equips; getting permanent of those is a lot more benefitial than permanent pets, and permanent pets wouldn't be that useful if we still had to keep paying the obnoxious price to keep buying equips.
