- You get more than just a few extra bps. You also get a flashable data pump.

- I just looked up the SRPs for the Power and the Premier. I used the PC
- version of the Power since the Premier doesn't appear to come in a Mac
- bundle yet and I wanted to compare apples to apples. The SRP for the
- Premier is $120 more than the SRP for the Power, $495 versus $375. Looks
- to me like sending in your Power plus an additional $99 to get a Premier
- is a pretty good deal. Even if you compare the Mac version of the Power
- against the Premier, you still come out even because the SRP for the Mac
- version is $395.
-
- FYI, I looked up the SRPs on Sparco, <http://www.sparco.com>. Their
- product description screens show both the SRP and the Sparco price, I
- guess so you'll know how much you're saving.
