Is the SONAR bundled Pentagon identical to the one offered for sale?

The "Pentagon I" version that's installed on my machines via various SONAR packages seems to only include the DXi version.  I'm seeing that the Cakewalk product page indicates that it also has a VST interface.  Furthermore, I noted that the documentation indicates the presence of a Pentagon I_fx.dll that I'm not finding on my system.

Can anyone speak authoritatively as to what the actual differences are...if any?

    Hey Dan - I'm not much help on this, but I recall a recent thread where the lack of a Pentagon VSTi (inc with Sonar) was preventing somebody from going 64 bit (you can't use a 32-bit DXi in 64-bit Sonar).

    It looks like you would have to purchase Pentagon I (for $129.00) to get the VSTi, which also includes its own micro-host.
