Hmm, that's different. When I called to get mine from S@H they asked me for my
RCX serial number.

Any RIS 1.0 purchased between August 1, 1999 and March 31, 2000 is eligible
for the free upgrade with proof of purchase, even if the box does not have
the upgrade sticker on it.  Just call 800 446-6107 (the # which is given on
the upgrade sticker if you have one) to order the free upgrade.

I can now give at least one confirmation of this.  Fortified by Rick's
post, I went to the local store and bought the 1.0 (set #9719).  I then
called the number above and told them I wanted the upgrade.  They asked
me if I had a sticker.  I said no.  Then they took my name, address,
credit card number and said it was $3.95 and would take 1-2 weeks to show
up.  Like Rick, I was not asked for proof-of-purchase.
