My Production Premium upgrade is on order! Also got a GTX285 video card for this CS5 release so Premiere will leverage the GPU finally when editing 5D2 video. Oy vey, this hobby is expensive.

Yep, they emailed and told me it was ready for download early. Downloading as we speak. Fun fun.
FYI - I installed CS5 on a brand new machine today and got some error messages at the end of the process. The program ran fine, but rather than take a chance, I called support and spent an hour on the phone with them (fast sevice and a great job, btw). After two more tries, with all virus protection and firewalls down, same problem, So we tested out the system, and decided that the error messages were probably erroneous, not the install. So might be a case of, if it works, don't fix it.
WOW! Photoshop CS5 is awesome! I'm having so much fun playing with the new features. Selections and masks are very much improved, I think i'm going to do a little write up on how the new features can be utilized for landscape photography on the Photo Cascadia blog later next week. Very impressed so far. Well done Adobe!
Like to see that write up, Zack. How about that Refine Edge tool?
Glenn, if you upgraded from CS3 you might be interested in that version of Clean Script. When we installed new builds during beta testing we used a beta cleanup script each time, albeit as I say, that was for beta's.

I am going to wait a bit before I upgrade from CS2 to CS5 mostly so that bugs get ironed out, and my piggy bank is a little more robust.
