Why would you migrate them away instead of buying a $150/$250 one-time 
license?

Thanks for the information.  I am just going on what we have been
formally told by our onsite Cisco engineers on several occasions.  It
may be that they were misinformed, or that they are trying to make the
sell for AnyConnect Licensing, but I had been going with the facts I
had.  I am glad there is a 64-bit in beta, at least, now I don't have to
migrate all those people off the ASAs right away.

The beta 64-bit VPN client has been released, FYI.
