Arduino Starter Kit Section Guidelines

Hi,

I've been looking at the Arduino Due info, and as a completely inexperienced person coming into this for the first time I am not sure as to the significance of that release. When it is released will the kit be updated to include the Due instead of the Uno r3 board?

While I don't want to spend a ton getting into something I haven't done before, I do want to make sure that I have the best tools to learn with. If the Due is released and the kit doesn't replace the Uno board, should I still go for the Due and buy the starter kit as well? And would the lessons taught in the starter kit translate for use on the Due?

Thank you for any insight you can provide!
