Unity 5 Pro discount after trial period?

My Oculus/Unity4Pro trial period just ended. I like the engine and am likely to purchase the Unity5 pre-purchase. There must be a bunch of us in this situation, since we all got the trial license about the same time. Has anyone heard of a discount from Unity3d to "on-board" rift developers to the normal Unity4/5 Pro license?

Sorry if this is the wrong forum or a duplicate question.

    I just realized that I should have put a question mark after the topic name. It's misleading otherwise. If anyone knows how to edit it let me know. (Edit: corrected with help from vajra3d)

    The answer to your question is no. It will still cost $1500 per seat. However! The license extends Unity 4 pro over to Unity 5 pro.. so basically, you can still develop on Unity 4 while we wait until Unity 5 arrives.

    Thanks saviornt. I bought the Unity5 Pro license at the regular price. Installing the new license was easy. Before making the decision to buy I contacted Julie in West Coast sales, if she calls back I'll mention that there maybe an opportunity to motivate Rift developers sign up by offering a discount.

    I don't know of any discounts beyond the 4-month trial that was provided w/ DK1.

    There was a group discount offered to members some time back, but it wasn't a very big discount, IMHO, and that offer ended:

    Here was another offer that may still be valid:

    Perhaps another offer could be requested?
