Hi Paul; I think you are right about the acounts. By the way, what did you pay for the SMA's? I have 5.1 and am in the US. I want to get 6.11 if I can afford it. Thanks. Terry Powers

I am not sure that that is true. If PDI can collect a bunch of money and put it into an acount, they should be able to draw interest on it until they deplete that acount. If they charge your card for the update, they should be able to put that money somewhere. I purchased two more SMA's shortly after the announcement of 6.1. Now, assuming that PDI charges my credit card and receives the funds, they will be put into an account. That acount should draw interest as I wait for the next major upgrade. I would think it would would work that way. I could be wrong. I don't really care when they charge my card as long as I receive my merchandise.
