Hello Morphy. I could be wrong about this but I don't think that after June 30 you have to pay full price, but the regular upgrade price. I believe that the full price is 199.00. The upgrade price from Mimic 1 is regularily going to be 159 (or thereabouts) but before June 30 it will be $111.00. But, having said that I think I remember having seen something about not being able to upgreade from 1 to 2.0 pro directly after a certain period of time, you would have to get 2.0 first. I feel for you about this upgrade thing though, I ALWAYS just miss the boat. Did it with Carrara, did it again with Lightwave (Ouch!!) I didn't take any chances myself this time; I just upgraded from Mimic 1 to 2.0 pro for &111.00 and based on what I'm hearing from the early reviews I'm glad I did. Best of luck to you my friend...
