'Tis true.  I just got my notice in the mail a couple of days ago.

"Each copy of an FGS product entitles you to order one copy of FASTBACK II
at a 60% discount, or each original title page of your current backup
manual entitles you to order one copy of FASTBACK II for $40."
(From the order form)

The order form says that you can use photocopies of the order form, but you 
must write the serial number of your FGS product on the form.  All-in-all,
it sounds like a really good deal.  And its even (mostly) within my budget.
