Sorry, what I meant was the initial version. The one that identified only US currency. I bought it for I believe 1.99 just to see how well it worked, knowing I couldn't use it for Canadian currency. Looktel indicated some months back that the next version would include a price hike, so I encouraged some friends to pick it up based on the, turns out successful, prediction that the subsequent version would support Canadian currency identification. I'm a little surprised it went up to ten, I would have thought five or maybe seven, but I believe people will be willing to pay the ten.
