I can see why friends did in store pickups as it took until 3:15 PM to get here! Youch!
Looks pretty sweet, but is currently syncing and since my sync is with iCloud I am sure it is going to take forever, so I am leaving for work in a minute and hopefully it will be done when I get home.
And I am setting up my old iPad on Kelly’s computer, so she will have it when she gets home.
Woohoo, new iPad.
One the day of the new iPad release I got my shipment from Marware and got my new Ecovue case for the newest iPad.
I have one of there cases for my iPad 1 and totally love it, and after I found out that M-Edge does not have custom printed cased with magnets (they have them without) for the new iPad I went for another Marware, and it is a great case.
They have a variety of cases for the new iPad, but I went for the EcoVue, which is what I had, and it is even better now. 
It even includes a pen and an elastic to hold it on the side. It has a space for the camera to fit through , they moved the place to put the iPad in to the side with the top on it so it won’t fall out, and it has a little stand for having it prop up on a desk.
This is an excellent case, and well worth the price of $54.99.
Well the case fits awesome, the magnets work well. This is an awesome case. I highly recommend it.
It is out for delivery, but I am still waiting unfortunately. Am doing work from home, but have a lot of work to do at work too! Damn I want my new toy! At least my current boss is cool enough to let me stay home today to wait for my new iPad.

I am looking forward to try this out, as I have already outlined a screenplay on this app and loved it. This is an excellent app all the way around.
Just evil, I want it now! Ha!
I got an e-mail response from 500px for my request for a refund and they have denied it.
Hello,
Sorry about the lack of response from your previous email . We had thousands of responses and yours must have slipped through the cracks! So sorry!
We have enabled again: The wall, Friend’s photos, your profile landing page as your own images, and we will also be bringing back Activity. As for the RSS feeds, I have forwarded your request to the developers.
As for the refund, we have clearly stated in the terms that refunds are only available within 30 days after the purchase.
If you need any further help, please let me know.
I responded with:
Yes, but you did not remove functionality of the site within the 30 day window, you did it with this update. I was paying for a site with certain functionality and now it is gone. This is no longer the same site.
I loved this site, and thought I would have a paid account forever, but you have lost me as a paid customer for good now.
I find this totally unacceptable, especially since they have refused to return the friends RSS feed to the site, which was the perfect way to follow your friends photos and never have to see the same photo twice. Without it, you never know how many you have missed or are sure that you have seen them all.
They have made the site useless, and I am no longer actively participating and am considering deleting my account completely. I find it unacceptable that they refuse my refund when they have changed the functionality of their web site.
Vincent Laforet has posted a video on using Adobe Story on a feature when Jon Carr and Justin Hamilton were working on the film script Mobius.
Sounds like collaboration support is the coolest feature, and then it goes right into Adobe Premiere Pro.
It is included as part of Production Premium from Adobe.
Apple has released a 3rd generation Apple TV which now supports 1080p content. 
They have also upgraded the software, and second generation versions have already got the update. It is much easier to navigate and they have added Vimeo support as well, and Netflix now has 1080 support for streaming (though I no longer have Netflix as I am doing Amazon Streaming and using my Roku which already does 1080). And it keeps it same size and shape for $99 and comes out the same day as the new iPad, March 12th, next Friday.
Apple has surprised no one and released the new iPad. Retina Display, more Ram, a better processor, better graphics, an improved forward camera (thought not the camera facing you) and 4G internet, for the same price. .
There is also a new iPhoto App that looks pretty impressive, though I don’t have the hard drive space to keep that many photos on my phone, though maybe if they expanded cloud or made it more like Adobe Carousel. Will check it out on my iPhone 4.
The weirdest thing is that Siri is not included, but I guess since not every model can have always on internet, though it can dictate what you say to it, so the technology is there, they just haven’t activated Siri.
Too bad there is not more processing power and more hard drive space, as well as a better forward facing camera but it is still a rocking machine. I can’t wait to get it!
I am getting one with my X-Mas Money! Thanks Mom and Baba! I can’t wait for Friday March 12th to come. Going to have to see about going in late for work so I can make sure I get it.
