Having worked in software development and test for years, interum versions of released products are frequently unstable, often highly unstable. I truly doubt getting their last development build would be something we'd want. > At this point, I probably would pay a bit for the bug fix, but > I don't think I should have to. IF the bug fix was ready for prime time...

I'd also be willing to pay for an upgrade. I don't think I'd pay more then $100 for it, but I'd be willing to pay that much. Perhaps an answer would be for IVL/Electrix would be to spin off the software development to a smaller independant company, similar to how Auresis/Gibson (Oberheim,etc) have their arrangement. Smaller companies can be more nimble and have lower overhead. Of course, software the relies on a specific hardware platform wouldn't be very viable unless the hardware remained available. I wonder how many Repeaters have been sold so far? Greg __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Sign up for SBC Yahoo! Dial - First Month Free http://sbc.yahoo.com
