John, are those covered in the cost of the chip? This alone could be a show stopper for us getting a free upgrade. That is an excellent point.
The process flow and testing on this upgrade should have been to test the NEW chip with the NEW code they are writing before they ship either one individually or collectively.There was a point where Anthem was not shipping ANY processors. At least to my dealer (who is the largest Anthem dealer, 2nd largest Paradigm dealer in New England) It lasted for about 6 weeks that way. Now he gets them in pretty steady, all with 1.16. This new chipset and code could explain 1) why the delay in shipping units out and 2) why the upgrade was delayed for so long, they had to get 1.16 ready so they could keep selling units. Again just speculation.
I also remember the Antehm rep telling me a ways back that they were hoping to have THX Ultra 2 in the version 2.00 upgrade if they could work out the licensing agreement in time. So John's point is very concerning to me. THANKS JOHN for raining on my parade!!!
