Hi,
you are in a "strange situation" ![Smile [:)]](/emoticons/emotion-1.gif)
I think you should have got an email about the free update since you own a subscription.
BUT on the other hand you bought after Sept. 1st 2006 - so you will get an extra notification about how to obtain the new product.
There is a difference between a "normal subscriber" and your situation.
A "normal subscriber" gets the product update.
This changes two things - A it sets his "got new product flag" and it gives access to a special download link where he can get the files.
The flag is important because our license says:
.....XXX time or at least one update......
So if you bought the prodoct at any time - it does not matter if you subscription ended (from the time frame) - you are a subscriber as long as you did not get a new version.
This is signaled by the flag.
In your case the things are different.
You bought the product at a time where we said "the new product will be out soon".
---(A delay from TomTom and a problem in the SDK made the "soon" a bit longer)
so new customers should get a new product.
This means that you will get a whole new product - not only an update.
There is no functional difference - but as a TTNC6 customer (what you will become) you did not receive a new product wiht this update.
So you stay in the state "no new product received" and your subscrition will end after 1 year (starting at purchase) or after you get a new product (what ever happens LATER).
Regards
Manfred
