Hi Russ,

No I sure don't, but I think it's around $180.00 at full price, and around
$120.00 at the discounted price.

Take Care.  Mike.  Go Dodgers!

Hi Russ,

Yes your friend should be able to upgrade to J2018 with no problems, but,
he'll have to pay full price for the SMA being he didn't buy the upgrade SMA
prior to January 1 of this year.  On the other hand, if he purchases the SMA
it'll be good for both J2018 & J2019.  To be absolutely sure of his options
he should call call them ath number below to make sure of his choices.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS sma question

2018-06-10 Thread Valiant8086

Hi.



If you try to do this shortly before the next version of JAWS is 
released that you won't have a license for, the cost should be around 
$160. maybe they won't always have that sale but it seems to me they 
have done it for a couple years now. When you get the letter in the mail 
letting you know that this is the last version you can use on your SMA, 
that letter will probably mention the savings if you want to activate it 
right then.



Also, you already know that you'll be good for 2018 and 2019 both before 
you have to spend that again right?



I personally think the up front cost of purchase is high, but I feel the 
cost of the SMA especially in the sale price window is pretty 
reasonable, at least for the home use one. 80 dollars for a year is 
pretty doable for most folks.

Ask VFO, but I believe the condition is that the SMA be bought within two years 
of the previous SMA or JAWS purchase. Having JAWS 18 implies this criterion is 
met. But I may be overlooking something.
