I upgraded my Professional to Premium (halfway through the professional subscription). It was annoying there was no upgrade path, I basically had to purchase a new subscription from scratch. You should just have to pay the difference, perhaps with prorata. Anyway, I got mine from microway.com.au and was happy. They will match any competing price, including overseas web sites. Given the aussie dollar exchange rate at the moment, I would find the item on a US web site, then contact microway with the url. That will give you an ex-GST price which should be heaps cheaper than anything you can find in Australia. It has to be the identical item though, of course.
