How is spending $12 (no pound sign on my keyboard) now better than spending $12 in the future when the $12 is only worth say $10 pound in todays value so essentially purchasing S3 in a few years time will be cheaper.
That's what I was joking about. The saving is somewhat insignificant as I pointed out, it's just human nature to not pay for stuff until you absolutely have to :P . As tristan said, paying in advance is just showing that extra bit of support for the devs.
@greboth: I'll be using inflation beating savings (the ones Alan Sugar keeps going on about )
Uhmm, I don't want to ruin your day but you're S2 licensed? It's still not really out, just an alpha version...
But I have to admit, I'll buy S3 when it's officially possible, I too don't see a point in buying it earlier...
I just noticed in the middle of the post, that I was going nowhere with that post. But I didn't want to type all that text and then not let it be posted, it deserved to be in the topic
Personally, when I get 24 more Pounds, I'm throwing it in my Account, for my S3 and then my friends S3 voucher. Easier to Pay now, and not have to pay later.
