The shipping costs are around the same as what I paid for Vue 5, so it's not too bad. I got P5 shortly after the initial release pre SR1, never had any problems, loved it still love it. The hiccup with the ordering process did annoy me, but I was pleased enough with Katherine's (curious_labs) speedy response, sometiems things go wrong with the coding of sites etc. So far I think the launch campaign for P6 is good, it's been enough to get me interested and make me want to pre-order it. I have high hopes for P6, it looks likes it's goin gto have some really neat features.
