I just talked to Bob Schuppel at Synergy. 
$250 will now get you 2D plus 3D wireframe. 
It does not get you Solids ( aka parasolids with extensions)
Wireframe is more difficult to use than Solids but pretty powerful.
Bob was telling me about a case in Solidworks that would not machine. 
In wireframe they corrected it to a machinable object. :-)

Now that IMO is a pretty good deal.
