You don't seem to be listening.  The person supposedly got 1.0 after 1.5 was
already being shipped, which should not have happened.  He should have got
1.5 (which costs the same as 1.0, even though people who already got 1.0 DO
have to pay for an update).  Does that make any sense?  If not, oh well.

But I still haven't got my 1.5 update yet, and I'm getting rather mad!!
