Well I agree and disagree with the adage of expecting upgrades etc. What I mean is if the upgrade is to fix a bug or something that does not allow the scanner to operate "AS ADVERTISED", then it should be offered for free. If an upgrade is offered for some sort of enhancement, then I think I would have to pay a reasonable fee for that. If your like me and do exhaustive research into something your buying to get the features you want at a price your willing to pay, then I myself don't expect anything else for free (features/enhancements) on what I bought. If a scanner brand you are considering doesn't offer something you want/require then I myself will look elsewhere or wait till that feature becomes available from the get go. This is an inherent problem I see with our hobbies hardware requirement. There is no standardization between the two major manufactures. They are close, but this thread just proves this is true (i.e. ESK). I am fortunate enough to be able to afford both brands and I see myself purchasing GRE products in the near furture if Uniden doesn't come out with a product that covers all of the things I require/desire in a scanner. No brand loyalty here, just my needs.....for what it's worth
