Autodesk Inventor 2011 SP2 Available

Autodesk just released Service Pack 2 for all applications of Inventor 2011 software.
SP2
You must install Autodesk Inventor 2011, and apply Service Pack 1, before you can install Autodesk Inventor 2011 Service Pack 2. If you have previously installed the Subscription Advantage Pack for Autodesk Inventor 2011 in addition to Service Pack 1, ensure you download and install from the appropriate Autodesk Inventor 2011 Subscription Advantage Pack SP2 file instead of the appropriate Autodesk Inventor 2010 SP2 file.
