So!  Your dealer won't acknowledge the existance of 2.03, huh?  This
is not hard to remedy!

Post another note with the dealer's name and phone number and an exact
but short description of the problem.

Ask people to call the dealer and ask "Do you have 2.03 in yet?  No?
It's been available for a month!  What's the holdup?"

After the first few hundred calls, the dealer should acknowledge the
existence of 2.03.  It won't cost much more than a dollar for a
one-minute call, so you should be able to convince quite a few people
to make this call.

BTW, even though 2.03 is a free upgrade, it's still technically
illegal to copy it around.  CBM is requiring dealers to ask for proof
of purchase.  Sort of silly, if you ask me....
