Mode S fitted?

As anyone upgraded to Mode S yet? If so, what's the real cost of upgrading a PA-28 at this time? (as opposed to the advertised prices in magazines). Can you re-use the old Mode A/C aerial, tray, etc.? Any problems with availability? Anything in particular we need to be aware of?

Also, is it true that to say that those of us with IMC (or IR) ratings will not be able to make further use of it, beyond March next year, unless we upgrade to Mode S?

...also I forgot to add...

As there\'s no such thing as night VFR in the UK, will night flying beyond March next year be limited to Mode S users?

Thanks
