Has anyone seen SuSE 9.2 available at retail locations in the U.S. yet? The places where I saw previous versions, do not have 9.2, only 9.1.

I downloaded and burned the SuSE Linux 9.2 Live DVD, but I've not been able to find the full distro for download or sale anywhere yet.

I saw 9.2 for sale online, however the shipping charge for it does not justify getting it online, it's less expensive (with the local sales tax factored in) to get it locally.

I heard that there was a way to update SuSE from 9.1 to 9.2 via YaST. Is there a specific way to do this, and would such an update work from 9.1 Personal to 9.2 Professional?
