Last night, I attended a Photoshop Users Group meeting at Adobe, where they previewed Adobe Photoshop CS2. Can you believe that Photoshop has been around for 15 years now? I still remember using PS2 back before layers support! There were over 150 people at the event, of which 75 people…

Continue reading →: iPod Photo Connector Reviewed
There’s a review on the iPod Photo Connector out on Playlist. The skinny? While it downloads RAW images from digital cameras, it can’t (yet) display them. Plus, the transfer rates seem to be pretty slow (12 minutes for 250MB) and battery drain is significant. Looks like I’ll be holding onto…
