Yup, customers first got it into their hands today.

As to the questions – we try very hard to remain backwards compatible with actions files. We do extensive tests reading in actions files from CS and 7, so they should all work.

Beats me. This is the first I’ve heard of it.

So long as it does not arrive without documentation, in a jewel CD case or flimsy sleeve and an activation code hand written on sticky label I guess you’ll be OK.

I’ve got my upgrade PSCS2 copies due to arrive today. But my CS2 Suite upgrade is still listed on Backorder.

Congrats Mike!

It looks as if you are the first of the many.

Any insights? How painless is the transition?

I guess it looks as if the weekend has moved into "no freetime zone"?

Not due to be here until 10:00am today. I’ve got gigs this weekend and probably won’t be able to load CS2 until the end of next week ;(

Interestingly, they have not billed my credit card yet, even for the PSCS2 copies. I also only ordered on April 11th, not as early as many others I suspect. So, I would think that most early pre-orders should be shipping soon if not already.

Mike. I noticed your post was 3.44am PST. Which side of the pond are you?

In the UK we were originally told delivery would not be until the end of May.

Perhaps you’re just an early bird?

The xtra costs involved should IMHO expedite deliveries even further!

Thanks Mike.

Actually I’ve just phoned Adobe UK (and got through to a guy in France, but I guess that’s another story!) Apparently the UK shipping date was the 21st too – so I wait with bated breath. I don’t suppose all the preorders will be sent out the same day. Just hope it’s alphabetical <grin>

Chris.

PS: So what time is it in Atlanta (compared with PST)?
MM

Apr 22, 2005
We are on "Eastern" time, which is 3 hours earlier than "Pacific" time which is what Adobe uses.

Chris I hope CS2 arrives before the weekend.

IMHO there’s nothing worse than a delivery happening in the middle of a busy week

I guess you’ll keep us posted? Experiences and reflections?

Sure will. And I expect we’ll see a post from Mike when the postman (sorry mailman) arrives! <g>

Actually DHL, and we call USPS "Letter Carriers" now because they are not always men. PC here. ;}

But I have to do a job this morning and will not be here when the DHL gets here. I’m not sure if signature is required or not, but it will likely be next week before I get to play.

this sux. i can’t get it anywhere. comp usa, who says they’re a "premire adobe partner" hasn’t even been informed it’s shipping. i can’t order from adobe with overnight, can’t from amazon.

this is a really BS roll out!

I’m glad you’re so excited. I’m sure manufacturing is turning out boxes out as fast as they can. I’d expect to start seeing Photoshop CS2 everywhere next week.

I suspect it’ll take a little longer for the entire suite package to start going out.

Why can’t you get it from Adobe.com Dave.

because i’m not going to pay overnight (~20+ bux?) for something that says "shipping before may". if it’s shipping it should read "shipping" and then i’d order.

Indeed, Ian, maybe is it because I never read post #9?

Chris, I’m sorry if my message sounded like that… My point was to help Danny’s work for the Photoshop Community.

A message to everybody that downloaded Danny’s tutorial: please send the feedback you may have to Danny, he’d be really glad!
Thanks again, Danny!

It looks like CS2 Suite Premium is now shipping. Adobe has bill my credit card and now lists "Product usually ships in 24 hours."

Looking at ‘catPhotoshopUpgrade’, I hope they brought back Udo, the belching cat in PSCS2.
