- I went ahead and called Zip Technologies yesterday to confirm the messages
- regarding the upgrades I read on here....Sure enough, one can send their Zip
- GS in for an upgrade to 12 or 14 MHz...Apparently, us Zip GS 8MHz people
- weren't informed of this upgrade, as the 9 and 10 MHz Zip users were...
-
- Anyway, the lady who answered the phone (I sincerely felt I had woken her up
- with my phone call) said that the upgrade was only effective for 30 days. It
- seems they are testing the initial response for the upgrade. The price for a
- brand new Zip GS running 14 MHz is roughly $650.00 + shipping, while the
- upgrade for others (without 64 K cache) is $400 (includes the 64 K cache)......
-
- I don't think I'll be upgrading at those prices.... :(
