Hi,
first off, I’d like to say that Scrivener is awesome and that, although I’m still enjoying my 30-day free trial, I’m definitely going to buy it.
Anyway, I read here that the 2.0 update won’t be free… The last update says that the new version will be released on May-June 2010 and, somewhere at the end of the post, it’s written that:
I assume that this was said back in December 2008.
Now… Should I really buy the licence for the 1.54 version right now? I mean: I want to buy it, I really do, but since I’ve used scrivener for just a week so far, I DO NOT want to pay $40 now and other $25 after a month, either.
Some features implemented in 2.0 are quite handy (I’ve read about them in the topic linked above) and, since I am a new user and I’m not that used to the “old” GUI yet, I’d prefer to use Scrivener 2.0 rather than stick with the previous one.
Therefore, I would really appreciate a clarification about what is going to happen. If I buy the licence for Scrivener 1.54 on (let’s say) 30th April, and Scrivener 2.0 is then released on June, will I have to pay the upgrade fee? If this is the case I think I’d better stop using it till 2.0 is ready.
Thank you,
Great Job, by the way
