FWIW, I bought an iMac (with Jaguar pre-installed) a week after
Panther came out, and was eligible for a $30 upgrade.

The same was true for iLife recently -- I bought an iBook a few days
after iLife '05 came out and qualified for a cheaper upgrade, but only
machines that were bought after the release date qualify.

I can't state for certain if there's anything to account for purchases
a few days before a release, but surely a local Apple shop should be
able to confirm our speculation.  When I bought the iBook, they simply
handed me the form to send in.
