Hi Mark

Are you saying that you get another copy of talks for the new mobile for 
£50?  If this is the case, I think it is a pretty good deal.  It should be 
possible to sell the original for half price, Would that cover the cost of 
the new licence and transfer of the old one to the new owner?

peter,

This subject has gone round the houses time and time again in the three
years i have had talks on my 9210i.

The developers have to recoup their costs  and perhaps even turn a profit to
enable continued development of the product.  If the licencing of the
software wasn't controlled it would be made freely available by someone and
they would never sell any ligitimate versions once a pirate version was on
the web somewhere.

There have been suggestions to tie the software licence to the sim card
rather than the phone which is just as bad imho.

moaning about it is not going to change any of this.  If I chose to upgrade
my 9210i I would expect to have to pay for the software again and they are
doing  you a favor by not making  you pay the whole price for each change of
phone you choose to have.  You can also sell on the phone with the licenced
copy  or you would then own two copies of talks.
