Re: filmscanners: Polaroid Insight vs. Silverfast AI vs. Vuescan
Well, we'll see how this flies. Someone named Annie got back to me this
evening from SilverFast in Florida. She gave me the correct URL for the $10
upgrade of AI. The fly in the buttermilk is SilverFast wants me to provide
"proof of purchase." Now I was forced to send in my original receipt
(stupid me, I never made a copy) and the bar code off the packing box in
order to get my $200 rebate from Polaroid. I've asked this Annie what else
might serve as "proof" for SilverFast. I have my fingers crossed but I
don't know. <g>
Annie didn't mention the HDR either way so I suppose the upgrade for that
now is the straight $45.
