Great review!

From what I've seen, the Mongoose RQ will be more compatible with RQII than RQIII. But that's sort of like comparing apples and different apples. The basic systems are so darn close, it's barely worth worrying about.
I've run plenty of RQII scenarios (Big Rubble, Pavis, etc.) using the RQIII rules, and all I really bothered to convert over were the hit points per location, as those changed a bit. Stats and skills-wise, everything's pretty much cross-compatible.
I just got the Borderlands & Beyond book from Moon Design, and am very much thinking of running it this summer using the RQIII rules.
