Dell offer new purchasers the free upgrade as an incentive to buy the X50v now instead of waiting a few months. This was done in order to limit competition from forthcoming WM2005 devices and also keep competitive with the HP devices (also offering the free upgrade). The cost of both licences (2003se and 2005) is a factor in Dell's current pricing structure and even though it appears to be "free" customers are really only getting what they pay for.
