Great there's a new version, shame it's not a free upgrade :(

P

Over the 3 past years, we published a lot of free updates, right ?

How many other companies do this after long period ?

So please tell me, what is shameless to make our FIRST upgrade not for free ?

Beside this, it is a really fair upgrade price.

Sure, you're entitled to do that, i'm just disappointed :(

As I say, I may upgrade in the future, but I don't know if there's any really compelling functionality to make me upgrade immediately?

I think, you don´t need. It exist a lot of other tools (windows mobile platform) where you can as example, extract CAB files with REAL names or install Apps in ANY folder by using WM5/WM6 OS.

I just bought it through the Pocketland discount offer. I suppose I could have emailed support for the upgrade details, but I couldn't be bothered to wait :(

I just checked, and I originally bought SK Tools in July 2004, so I am quite happy to pay for this upgrade to an excellent piece of software that I regard as essential on my PPC :D
