A simple example was that before us was updated in CL store p4 was $219 and the uk one was 205 pounds +35 tax (add on respective posting afterwards not relavent here), at current rough exchange rates that makes $375 , then you add on shipping for both (and prob still get charged VAT on top of tax for uk and a cusotms inspection charge). Most software is worked out that badly for most european /australian places, Americans dont know how good they have it for software (not including all the free mag stuff). Im guessing the UK *upgrades.co.uk or computer unlimited will have p5 upgrade for around 150 from p4 after a bit of time and there be no shipping or anything to add there. The people who have got ripped off are anyone who recently upgraded from p3-p4 expecting p5 and the difference for upgrading now is just $30 and recently upgrade pricing for 3-4 was around $130 here (not including magazine offers), so there about $100 out, as for anyone who recently went from p4-pro pack well they prob be a little bit more angry than the p3-p4 folks. Anyway in the end $179 from p4-p5 is a fantastic price, just cant help think its not very balanced.
