I'm a student as well and I don't have a lot of extra money, so I downloaded the trial of JiveTalk just to try it out. I was so into the program that I didn't notice when my 30 days passed and was so saddened when I could suddenly not use the program that I ponied up the 30 bucks (didn't know about the coupon) for the lifetime license. It's a hefty price for a program, I understand that quite well since during the school year I make about 100 bucks a week after taxes if I'm lucky. But it's a program that works fantastically and with the lifetime license, you can move it to any other BB device you upgrade to in the future.
