yeah I bought last year in September and then the next upgrade came out a couple months later and I had to pony up more $$$ for the upgrade. plus the special pricing they offered at end of year was much better than the mid-year deal so I ended up spending a lot more than if I had waited a couple of months. dunno if their pricing/specials will be similar but if so, you'd be crazy to buy at this point! (of course that is just my opinion!)
