They do list a lot of new FEATURES, but I cannot see the BENEFITS that all these alleged features could be providing to me at the end of the day.
What I had really hoped for was a way to place my own variables into the expansion texts and have Typinator ask me for their values during expansion ("Dear {recipient}, thank you for your {stuff} ...").
If the new version doesn't have this (which I assume since I cannot see this mentioned anywhere) I might just stick with the old version — or spend the requested upgrade fee on a competing product instead.

... we changed our license policy from time-based to version-based in March 2010.
For details please see: https://store.ergonis.com/licensepolicy
The license you purchased in September 2010 therefore was obviously a license for Typinator 4.*, without any time-based maintenance. No indication on our web site or your receipt would have "stated that my upgrades were free up to Sept. 2012" at the time of your purchase.
In case of any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service: typinator (at) ergonis.com.

Typinator truly saves me hours every week entering data into forms, addresses, web sites, names, account names, email addresses.
It is completely 100% stable (even beta releases), which is a top requirement. Typinator even deactivates temporarily when switching between apps known to cause issues--no configuration needed.
As a professor, it helps me cut my grading time in half with frequently used comments, feedback, lists, rubrics, and so on. Been using for years and would never give up Typinator as long as they continue regular development.

Your licence doesn't cover the new version.
Say what ?
Is there any new stuff in here justifying this update because I been using it like it's part of my osx for a while and never had any real trouble with 4.0.
Can't you ask more money when version 5 is delivered or something ?

Team just kindly mail-reminded me I purchased typinator more than 2 years ago under their old time based policy. Appreciating the consideration.
With that said, typinator is useful and reliable, never failed me really so I'm not even complaining having to stick with a fine working 4.0.
It's all good.
