My Strategy is to put the app on my wish list at Appshopper then just wait for the price to come down. I have enough apps on there now that I get alerted quite frequently. I put Simcity on there right when I heard it was available and got the alert this morning. You can also look at the price history to see what sales there has been in the past.

When, and how will The Complete National Geographic update the digital archive?
Content updates for The Complete National Geographic will be available after the print editions of the previous year have been published. The 2009 content update will be available for purchase and download via the Internet in the spring of 2010.

You can copy it onto your hard drive. They are supposed to create a program to do this, but you just need to copy the DVD folders into a cache file. National Geographic has even posted instructions:

This is NOT just a reissue.

This version uses Adobe AIR. The interface is well done, very intuitive. The quality is good and you can zoom. You can print pages, too. There is a way to copy the DVDs onto your hard drive and lose the DVD's. Since I'm mostly interested in more recent issues I only copied 3 of the 6 DVDs onto my hard drive and that works fine too. It has a local Cache and always looks there for content first.

I got my copy from Amazon for below the retail price. It was on gold box a few weeks ago for about $35. A great deal, but still a good price even at retail.

I see a rabbit in the clouds right above the car to the left of the telephone pole.

How long do I have to shake? (Still shaking fist)

Feed me Cupcake! NOW!

I'm in for one chopstick

Umm... comments are confirming for me? I hope this isn't a double post.

Oh, and send it to me pronto!
