Takk Oslo! Kiitos Helsinki! Tack Stockholm!
Greetings from the Nordics, my friends! To date, we've wrapped the first three of eight CS4 Launch Tours, and it's been nothing short of fab. Over 500 attendees in both Oslo and Helsinki, with over 1100 attendees at our event in Stockholm yesterday; CS4 love is in the air...and we're spreading it around like wild fire!
I've included just a couple pics from the theatres, taken just before the seminars started (so people were still filing in the seats). Beautiful locations with great marketing and branding materials adorning the entry ways, making these events truly special, and very Adobe. ;) A great big thanks to our extended Nordic teams in Finland, Denmark, Norway and Sweden. You've all done an AMAZING job so far; we can't wait for the NEXT 5 cities, kicking off next Monday in Århus.
The crowd files in. Oslo, Norway, 21 October.

So my friends, many more cities to visit, and thousands more to inspire. Stay tuned for more updates, and please, feel free to come up and Hello! We've had some great Q&A in all the cities, and we look forward to meeting you all.
Until next time...(promoting my fave coffee maker, Nespresso, found in the Radisson SAS hotels)

Hey Jason,
I'm considering if I should go to the Launch Tour in Amsterdam next week. I've already seen a lot on the IBC, so I'm wondering if it's worth it to go there again. I'm also considering going to Utrecht instead (it's a bit closer). Any advice?

Hey Floris. Well, what you saw at IBC was a 'preview' of only some of the features of CS4. In additional to a full hour on an overview Production Premium CS4 (as well as nearly 2.5hrs on Design Premium and an hour Web Premium) we'll also be conducting deep-dives into After Effects (1hr), Premiere (1hr), Flash & Dreamweaver (each one hour), Photoshop CS4 and more. The deep-dives will give you a more in-depth look at new features and legacy features, and how to use them in an integrated workflow. The deep dives are running all day, during the 'Overview' presentations, so you can choose where you want to be. ;)
That being said, that deep dive sessions will ONLY be conducted in Amsterdam and Brussels. Utrecht, Rotterdam and Antwerp will only have the 'What's New/Overview' presentations (but again, you'll get to see over 3 hours of Web and Design premium, and an additional 30 minutes of Production Premium that you didn't see at IBC. Hope this helps, and I hope to see you there. All the best---JL

Thanks for your reply Jason! We've got a shoot on Monday unfortunately, so I'm going to be there in Utrecht instead. Thanks again for your information, and see you there!

Hey Carlsson! Nice to hear from you. Indeed, we've been very 'busy bees', covering the world, promoting CS4. Sadly, Greg, Rufus and I will not be attending the Asia/Pac CS4 Tours; but our colleagues Tim, Karl & Paul will be there, rockin' the house for sure, over the next 2 weeks. All the best to you, and hope to hear from you again. Take care. --JL
