Three Reasons to Upgrade to RAD Studio 2010 BEFORE January 31, 2010

Reason #3: Upgrade discounts of 34% to 53% have been extended to January 31, 2010
Special upgrade pricing for registered owners of v1 through v2005 of Delphi® and C++Builder® ended on December 31, 2009. However, we’ve heard from many, many users who wanted to upgrade but couldn’t (for good reasons) before the end of last year. So we’re extending upgrade pricing for one last month through January 31, 2010. Registered users of 2006-2009 versions of CodeGear RAD Studio, Borland Developer Studio, Delphi, C++Builder, Turbo C++ Professional and Turbo Delphi Professional also qualify for the same great discounts. Act now to save money with upgrade pricing!

- Justin James, Tech Republic

“The IDE response remained lightning fast throughout my hours of testing...So much has changed over the last 15 years, yet Delphi 2010 is still recognizable and as easy to use as Delphi 1.”

Special upgrade pricing has been extended to January 31, 2010.

Developers using Delphi versions 2005 and older have come to our road shows, workshops and webinars and were convinced that RAD Studio 2010, Delphi 2010, C++Buildler 2010, and Delphi Prism 2010 are the product versions to use. Our resellers and web shops were inundated with orders at the end of last year. So that everyone can upgrade, we have extended the upgrade pricing offer until the end of January.

Here is the notice from the migration web site:

"Users of Delphi and C++Builder versions 2005 and older. Special upgrade pricing has been extended to January 31, 2010. This is your last chance to get upgrade pricing on the 2010 versions of Delphi, C++Builder, and Embarcadero RAD Studio."
