Wasn't the JET product made by TunerCat? Other than the Vista problem, is there any reason not to use it? Does it not do things that LT1 Edit does?

Seems it's cheaper for what you get than LT1 Edit. JET is ~$375 and you can tune 4 PCM's. LT1 Edit is ~$450 and you can tune one. It's $100 per for each additional PCM.

jet has zero customer service backing in this particular product. you can only email the company owner with issues.. that is the only person with any knowledge of the system as i was told in a phone conversation when trying to sort out issues i was having. i ended up sending the pcm to madtuner.com just to be able to get it running. they are using lt1 edit.. do the math

I have had very good luck with the Jet software I have not had any problems. If you are only doing one or two cars the JET software is cheaper.

I was unaware that LT-1 edit had an OBDII operating system. If they are able to tune multiple cars with the same software and all you need is $100 per car the LT-1 software may be cheaper in the long run if you plan to tune many cars.
