Basic IP Question

I have a design that uses the Nios II core. I contacted a rep about the need to license this bit of IP and he said that if I used the "e" version then there is no license fee; other wise it is $495....

you get unlimited time as long as the USB Blaster is connected to the board and computer. as soon as it disconnects I think you have about an hour

none of those IP require a license, its definitely the Nios. perhaps start a test design from scratch?

OK, perhaps I am confused. Do I need a license to run NIOS with the cable disconnected? It is working fine with the cable connected.
