Any news yet on when 2010.5 might be released?

I think that we've so become used to having new product ever six months that we've come to expect it.

Pat, no one ever said 2010.5 even exists. It might, but then again, it might not.

Tight on money, but I'll have to try and go for it... it usually is worth the expense. <sigh>

Hi,

Today my wife asked me if there is comming a new up-date of biab 2010. We are going on hollydays soon, and she would like to know how much money there will be left for vacation.
So, to calm her down, when do you have a hint about the issue? :-)

May just be a booking issue while Sir Elton John tries to find time in his schedule to lay down the RealTrack. Hm....

We had a discussion (or at least I remember) about July being .7 and August .8 but it was in Jest......Jest in case.

The anticipation is the best part...

RealBodhran?

RealSackbutt?

RealScat?

Whatever it is it will, by all standards, astound us all once again.

Yes. It came so late in the year last time that I've been kicking myself ever since for not waiting for the Holidays and the 2010 edition to upgrade. Two Audiophile version purchases within a few months can put a serious bite in one's music budget.

As a thought for the PGMusic folks...

last few years I've been upgrading at the .5 issue, but skipping the december upgrade because money is tight at christmas.. The upshot is that, even though I upgrade in yearly increments, I have missed the special price that most people get when they upgrade from december to december.

Please consider making the same annual offer available when people upgrade from .5 to .5 as is available when people upgrade every december

current pricing structure is something like this:
upgrade from 2010 = best price
upgrade from previous version (2009.5)= higher price

I've always purchased every new one that comes out, but now that I'm an audiophile nut it's getting too expensive, unless the upgrade will be downloadable to to the biab hard drive I purchased last. I hope that is the case.
