Has anyone actually got the 30 day EAP trial?

Right, but conversely, they may lose money by letting some people "cheap-out" and buy just TACC instead of requiring them to pay for the more expensive package to get TACC.

This is coming from someone who initially thought EAP wasn't worth the extra $5K, signed up for the first 14 day trial, tried it out for 10 days, examining the limitations, then decided it was worth it to pay the extra $500 "penalty" to keep it.

Tesla should continue to offer EAP as a trial. It may get fence-sitters to buy in after living with the system for several days. Tesla would not really "lose money" if they did start unbundling pieces of EAP by offering TACC as a separate, stand-alone option. They would "lose LESS money" if they did it this way because the hardware in already in all of the cars. If someone thinks $7K is too much for the entire EAP package and would NEVER pay that much, but is willing to pay $3K for TACC, then Tesla has earned more money then they would have.
