I have the Portfolio LE package. I am wondering if Logos has something in store for another upgrade, or a build-your-own package.
Thoughts?

That'd be "Scholars Unobtanium". [;)]
Seriously though, at this point - picking and choosing amid the many extant books and the prepub's available is your current course of action.
Who knows though, in the future Logos could assemble Portfolio Pro.
I think the last time I saw something on the number of available titles it exceeded 10,000. Give sales a call and ask if they can give a bundled price on everything. After your rep catches his or her breath, I bet they would transfer you to Dan or Bob[:D]
I'm betting that when Logos 5 comes out, they'll announce Suitcase Edtition. [:)]

Are you expecting L5 to come with a lot of baggage?
. . . no, just our initial posts on the forum . . .

Nope, it's just the next step up in the size progression:
After that comes trunk.
Rosie, do they really send you some cheesy portfolio looking thing with the DVDs

I think they do when you order the DVDs. I've heard mention of it from others. But I ordered my Portfolio upgrade via the download option, so I didn't get one. That's fine by me. I already have too many nice leather cases and bags and notebook covers of various sorts that I never use.
EDIT: Incidentally, the photo I posted above is just some random picture of a portfolio from Google Image; it's not the Logos porfolio.
When I upgrade to Portfolio, once they've upgraded it again, I want my portfolio and I don't want any bonded leather mess!
I noticed that Platinum is now the top-selling base package.
I think the next addition should be something in between the Platinum and Portfolio that is not such a huge jump.
A lot of us who made the jump from Gold to Platinum will never make the jump to Portfolio, but are still itching for more resources.
I just can't justify that many resources, until Logos perfects their Subliminal Reader. I certainly don't have time to digest all that in my waking hours.

Good observation. But How about two new packages? One between Platinum & Portfolio and the other Kryptonite (everything + the kitchen sink.)
Dan Pritchett can even offer reverse mortgages to pay for it!
I JUST have gone to Gold and I have about 3,000 resources. The reason I haven't already gone to platinum or Portfolio is because I am such an avid pre-pub buyer. So, there was little advantage for me to upgrade. I wasn't even going to upgrade to Gold this year, but I wanted the NIGNT which as you can see is over $500. The Gold upgrade for me was $300 and it was in the Gold, so I was going to be brain dead stupid to buy it ala cart, right?
Gold still didn't add a whole lot of substance to my collection past the NIGNT. Platinum adds some interesting things, but I would rather make a big jump next year like to Portfolio.
All these editions contain are the pre-pubs. If you had been keeping up strictly with the pre-pubs there wouldn't be a need for any more base package upgrades. But, there have been times when I had to back out of pre-pubs because of finances or whatever - and now they are in those packages.
I don't ever expect to read all my resources, but it is helpful to have them for researching. I tend to buy mostly reference books and academic/scholarly works, not ministry helps or Christian living titles or "just to read it" books. So the more I have, the better shot I have of finding what I'm looking for in a search, and multiple viewpoints on it.
But yeah, a Subliminal Reader would be awesome. I do have a huge list of books I still want to read someday in my lifetime (most of them not in Logos), and at the rate I'm going, I doubt I'll get to them all. And that's not even counting the additional ones I'm adding to my list at a faster rate per year than I can read them. Hopefully there will be an infinite Library in heaven and I'll have all eternity to read the great classics!

1 Cor 2:9THINGS WHICH EYE HAS NOT SEEN AND EAR HAS NOT HEARD,AND which HAVE NOT ENTERED THE HEART OF MAN,ALL THAT GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THOSE WHO LOVE HIM.NASU
No doubt , We will have access to everything that has ever been said or written about God and his Kingdom. But beyond that...We can hear what God says about Himself...From His own mouth. ... Praise God
That and more! We are perfected when we are with the Lord, he gave us a mind and a brain to be used (along with a body), so we will be using it for all eternity in ways that we cannot even imagine!
John 21:25 Jesus also did many other things. If they were all written down, I suppose the whole world could not contain the books that would be written.
I bet you can spend eternity reading The Complete Works of Jesus Collection. Wonder what Pre-Pub price we can lock that in for.

That will be "Logos Premier Package" which will come out sometime in the future about 1 light year away...hehehe [6] It's be nice if they could offer us Platinum owners some good bundles to customize our package; because honesty, I have several of the Portfolio resources. There's only one other resource I'm interested, but it's too expensive and that is the JPS commentaries. Hopefully they'll be on sale for xmas. Anyway, have a great day!
Yes indeed! If you think about it, Platinum is the best deal for your money. It has BDAG and other great commentaries like Baker's exegetical commentary and Pillars 10 vols. instead of 8. After that you can customize to fit your needs! Great package!!! Thanks Logos! I just regret not getting Pillars on Acts and Philippians at Prepub prices...If they said to me they'd sell them to me at prepub price right now, I will jump at the opportunity and get them. And as a bonus I'll prepub Hebrews and 1 Corinthians too. So what do you say Mr. Bob, can you make an exception this time? I didn't have the money that's why I couldn't order, but now that I do, I could only afford them at prepub price. If you can please make an exception, email me at: iglesiadecristo3@yahoo.com I would greatly appreciate it and forever be thankful! I'm planning on having the complete set of PNTC. So I'll be ordering the prepubs as they come out. Anyway, have a great evening!
Blessings!

I have an even better option. One day in eternity, Jesus and I will go for a walk by ourselves, (just the two of us) and we will have a long talk. The cost: Calvary.
Just for grins, a light year measures distance, not time.

Call Logos and ask to speak with a sales rep. I've worked with Jim-Ray and he has been helpful on many occasions, but any rep will serve you well. Many times they can get you a good deal.
