NIV 2011 Now Available for Accordance
Tuesday, May 3, 2011 at 11:39AM Earlier today, OakTree Software released the new 2011 New International Version text for Accordance Bible Software. A number of you have asked me if/when I'd write something more in-depth about the revised NIV text, but I had wanted to wait until it was available in Accordance. In spite of the fact that I already have the 2011 NIV on other platforms, Accordance makes comparisons with other text incredibly easy to examine.
The whole family: NIV 2011, NIV 1984, TNIV, and NIRV
Of course, this doesn't mean I'll have a review of the 2011 up immediately (these things take time), but at least now I can seriously look into it.
Pricing information from the Accordance forums: If you already own the NIV 1984, the NIV 2011 is a $25 upgrade, otherwise it is $30. As a separate module, the NIV 2011 will not take the place of the NIV 1984 in Accordance, but rather will show up in your library as NIV11. That means that if you own both, you can view the two Bibles in parallel. If you purchased the NIV 1984 earlier this year (January 1, 2011 or later) you can upgrade for $20 with coupon code NIV11up. The NIV11 also happens to be today's featured product in our Bible of the Day Sale, so if you act fast you can find an exclusive 24-hour deal on our Facebook and Twitter pages!

I don't know if this is of any use to you, but I've done a comprehensive computer comparison of the NIV1984, TNIV, and NIV2011, which can be found @ http://www.slowley.com/niv2011_comparison/
Well, I hope I can buy my own copy for the kindle soon. It is not available outside the USA yet.
