I too, think that making 1.2 our last free update is perfectly reasonable.
C-A can hardly be expected to keep shelling out the $$ it costs for updates
indefinately.

However, I (and several other developers I expect) would certainly
appreciate it if C-A would figure out some way to provide for update of the
graphics chip so that the early developers can get the version that supports
'halfbrite' mode.  C-A can charge enough to cover expenses (and I don't
care if they have to take orders in advance to do it).
