What is the REAL story on LATCHing the Nautilus in Booster Mode?

I read some posts containing e-mails on here that people have received from Graco. I contacted Graco about this exact issue today, before I read those posts with the e-mails (I never remember to use that great search option until AFTER the fact :eek:) and was told that LATCH, specifically lower anchors, cannot be used in booster mode past 48 pounds. This seems to conflict what other customer service reps have told people here, unless I'm missing something.

So does anyone know what the real, official statement is regarding this? I think I annoyed Melissa, the rep I was e-mailing back and forth with, with all my questions because she's now ignoring me :rolleyes:.

She (Melissa) was probably just sick of the same question. I e-mailed them to ask for sure too (and put a note in about the girly cover that I would love to have) and here is the response I got from Melissa:
"Amanda, thank you for contacting Graco. At this time we will not have other patters for the unit for girls. Once the child is using the vehicle seat belt as booster mode you can still use the latch system and tether strap to secure the seat down. The latch system can only be used up to 48Lbs"

I guess I assumed that answer to be that harnessed it cannot be used past 48 lbs but boostered (b/c most weights boostered would be high) it could be used. Maybe I interpreted it wrong...
