I think you're missing my point. I'm not sure how long the creator has had this product out, or if he's allowing a trade-in for early adopters, but why release a product that needs to constantly updated? Shouldn't it be good to go from the beginning? We're talking about light bulbs, not an ipod or a car where the product needs a life cycle refresh.
I know I'd be just a little upset if I had bought the ver.2's at almost $300 and then there are ver.3's coming out for less. Either way, I'll still be picking up a pair for its positive reviews.
