Just installed the new B&N eBooks app means I can buy books from all three sources on the iPad. Maybe that will start a price war.
-
Yeah I have no joy on the iPad with Chat. Just tells me I need Java.
-
We wish the same Dan. We'll take lots of pics and video the best stuff for you.

Yeah, I am using the 30 day trial of Aperture now. I know I can get a thirty day trial of CS5 so I assume I can get Lightroom as well and will try it out.
Coming from Photoshop CS, Aperture seems kind of strange but I very much like the controls.
-
I prefer the follow-up picture as well. I am going to have to start sending all my first attempts to Knuckles for advice.
What do you think about Lightroom? I have let my Photoshop software get out of date, CS, and now I would have to pay full price to get the new version so I am going to decide between Lightroom and Aperture.

Just got from dinner. Argentinian steakhouse. Urp.
Yumm. Did you get the Proveleta?
-
Thanks Gene. That is actually the Hudson and Manhattan Railroad Powerhouse which is going to eventually become a giant arts location to celebrate the history of artists in this part of JC.

Well both my plan and my back-up plan fell through today so all I managed to do was go for a walk at sunset to catch the storm coming in. If it does not rain all day tomorrow I intend to make it over to B&H for some Prime lens shopping.

Happy Birthday.

Yeah the weight isa concern. I do not have any of the big primes at the moment so the 100-400 is my biggest zoom. I could take the 70-200 with the extender and probably have everything I need I just wanted to get used to the 100-400 as I have rarely used it since buying it a few years ago and thought it would be nice at the track.

Got all the gear packed up for a short road trip tomorrow to Bear Mountain State Park so I can do some shooting to get familiar with the 50d before trying to shoot the Rolex Grand Prix race on Memorial Day at Lime Rock Park. Been a while since I did any nature/landscape shooting so I am trying to decide on the lenses. I think the 100-400L, 24-70L and the 135L will go and maybe the 17-40L for vistas but that is probably overkill with the 24-70. I almost need a suitcase to carry all the glass.

Is your wireless router set up for both B & G bands? That can sometimes cause problems. My Internet runs really slow when I have the router set that way.

The new Netflix update allows you to pass video through the VGA output so you can use it with your TV.

It sounds like all your apps are synced to another computer that you were syncing to when you bought the apps. Much like music and movies, if you plug into another computer it will either let you keep the stuff on the iPhone or just wipe it all out and put whatever is on the computer onto the iPhone. If the computer is also on the same network you should be able to move stuff back and forth but if you added all the apps on an old computer that you do not have anymore I think it is more difficult.

Spent the morning at B&H. I have not been there since they opened up the whole second floor and dedicated it to Photography. I could spend a lot of money on the second floor there. Ended up getting a Gitzo 1780 tripod head, 2x16gb SanDisk Extreme CF cards and a bunch of generic BP-511A batteries.

Thanks Gene, all shots were taken with the 17-40L and the silhouette was taken with it wide open and metered off of the cloud-shrouded sun.

My biggest problem with the Jack Spade bags are that everyone and their dog has one in NYC. The subway is full of the messenger laptop bag. I have the Green and Orange one and a Black and Blue one.
-
My Jack Spade bags have always been durable but kind of useless when trying to compartmentalize stuff I carry daily.

I love the Iraq series Naaman.
I took the new 50d for a walk in my neighborhood this morning.

He already knows about it and is trying to come up with which of the heavy ass things we moved into his fourth floor walk-up apartment last weekend he could sell to fund these.

Looks like it only works with Safari Mobile so I am able to get on by using Atomic Web and telling it to emulate Safari Mobile.
