I was over charged $50.95. I paid $249.95 and the promo price is $199.00. So I've requested they make the $50.95 adjustment on my vredit card.
Best of luck with that! It sounds like exactly the sort of situation I want to avoid, so thanks for the heads up. I guess Sony are now sending out many hundreds of emails - so I guess mine is on the way. Waiting.
Click on the link that reads "Upgrade to Vegas+DVD Production Suite for $249" which takes you to a Products page on their site that shows Vegas+DVD Production Suite and at the bottom of the page it shows "Staring at: $199.00".
Same to me now. I bought the Vegas+DVD upgrade just an hour ago for 249 dollar plus EU tax. Just two minutes ago I received the promo mail where same upgrade is offered for only 199 dollars.
UPDATE - looks like the answer is no, unless you're happy to use the demo while you wait for the box - but no MPEG support or DVD burning with the demo.
