Shirley,

I received my v1.1 upgrade AUTOMAGICALLY within a couple of months of
the original $55 purchase from MacConnection.  And, NO, I did NOT have
to call AT to request the upgrade!  (For what it's worth, unless
you're into multi-lingual dictionaries or heavy-duty outlining the
upgrade is virtually useless.  That is, there was not any detectable
performance improvement, and I have not run into any v1.0 bugs that
have been fixed in v1.1.)
