does the software have free upgrades? Also is the software only good for 12 months or once I buy it can I use it indefinitely?

The updates are free, the upgrade (I.e. LR 6) will not be free. You can use this version forever if you choose to!

Hooch: For the price I paid, I did not expect it to have any software and it did not but I was given the gift by Microsoft of a free upgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1. I personally do not like any one to load up my computer with what they believe I need as far as software is concerned, it means that I eventually need to delete it.

Version 4 is now available. Blueirissoftware.com If you purchased after 12/1 you can get a free upgrade...otherwise its half price.

The program is good for as long as you want, although there are yearly updates if you would to purchase them. The program will continue to without purchasing the updates.

You mentioned that Garmin strips out features on new releases and then adds them in the next quarter or so. Do they make those added features available through software upgrades or are you SOL if you buy the unit without those features?

Yes, updates are free for the first 90 days, not one year. It updates speeding camera and red turn light locations. After 90 days you pay an annual fee

Only if you purchased the unit within the past few months. I think it's 6 months but I could be wrong. I was able to get a free update past the deadline the first year, but not now. It bites. Updates should be free since there is so much misinformation in the originial unit I had.

For me it was a great improvement since I upgraded from 2009. I especially like the fact that my information is only one file now. I did the Amazon download. Hope this helps.

Once you receive the tool you will have to follow directions giving on how to get the software installed on the tool. As far as how many updates you have free updates for a year I think. It's a good tool worth the money in my opinion.

Hey guys, so alexander miller was actually right. You can upgrade to version 10 for free you just need to follow the instructions alex gave above. I hastily returned it though without realizing. Yes, this is a good deal but I ended up getting just the mbox 3 without the full version of pro tools since I've yet to even open pro tools lol. (Still doing everything in ableton live)

Sorry I don't own this anymore, but from what I have read, you do not get free updates, you will have to purchase them

Never used it so I can't answer. I know it's a $150-$170 software if you buy it individually. See if you can download the trial and give it a try.

I tried to upgrade. Their software is terrible, so I just gave up. Sorry, wish I had an answer.

Its comparable after you do all the updates. You go to their website and connect the scanner to your computer and install the updates. Its not worth it. There's better out there that's ready out of the box to use plus it shows a CD disc but that doesn't come with the scanner. Hard to update it without the disc. W

I recently started with the free version and it worked fine. A coworker downloaded the free TRIAL of the PRO version and after using a few times, it wouldn't work without paying. So unless you need the Pro features, don't download the trial, just use the free version.

It doesn't come with the software. It gives you instructions on how to register and download all the software you need from their site for free. That way, they aren't shipping any outdated software with the product.

the license does not expire. You can probably upgrade it at some point in the future.
