Torque 3D Upgrade Questions

I am thinking about finally purchasing Torque 3D, but the Studio version (No source) for now, until I can get the money a few months from now for Individual Source or Studio Pro, so I can have the source.
I am wondering, if it would make it cheaper if I purchased Torque 3D with no source, by adding an Upgrade Option to the Source version?
I have TGEA so the Upgrade is available, but I guess I am wondering, would anyting change, if I were to purchase the no source version? Would it get cheaper? Or stay the same? Or would the current Upgrade Option disappear?
Also, to be clear on priorities here, can you guys list a few things impossible to implement with TorqueScript, in relation to Action RPG style gameplay? So I know, whether it is a good investment to purchase Torque 3D no source?
It wouldn't take me long to get the remaining money for the Source, but I'm getting increasingly impatient to dwelve into Torque 3D :). Dying to get practicing on the layout of the engine.
Thanks in advance,
Daniel

It wouldn't get any cheaper the discount for owning TGEA doesn't stack with the discount for purchasing the binary version. I believe (don't quote me for sure) the site would apply the greater of the discounts still so TGEA in this case.
Personally if you know you'll want the source I'd save til you can afford the Pro license rather than shell out 100 bucks for a few months.
Half way house might be the T3D demo as it's free - you can learn the new editors and play with it, learn til you've got the cash saved up for the pro version
