Thanks for the detailed blog entry. I appreciate the shortcut list, especially the “O” for showing the mask overlay. It really helps to see the mask when doing localize corrections.

NAPP buddies have done a great job as usual.

I do however have a concern about speed of rendering the localized corrections.

I’m running a Windows Vista 32 bit on a Intel 2.8 GHz Dual Core Processor with 4 G RAM.

Painting is slow with the mouse, but unbearable with a WACOM pen. I also notice that when I use the WACOM pen I get random strokes across the screen.

Any suggestions ?

Other than this, all seems good to go.

Hope Adobe can come up with some deals for us NON USA residents that gets the price a bit closer to yours

Look forward to your review of the D700, thats on my must get list for October
Many Thanks
Paul

Problem is the global pricing.

In the USA it is $99USD and if you are quick there is a promo code that knocks it down to under $85USD.

We live in a mix of 3 places, New Zealand, Europe and LA. Home is where we are that month

If we buy the upgrade download via the NZ store its about $129USD, via the Europe site its around $155USD, both + tax and either have promo code options..

The adobe USA store wont let me buy via it cause the card details are not USA, its odd as we spend alot in the USA via BHphoto and Samys without an issue.

So it looks like I will need to wait to we get back to the USA in Sept to get my upgrades

In the meantime I will play with the trial version as long as it does not muckup my reg details like the last adobe trial did last month.
