The new phonebooks are here!

Weeks of drinking gallons of Ovaltine had finally paid off! I am now the happy owner of SONAR 3 — and since I got the Holiday Special, it includes a Contour ShuttlePRO v2 (nifty!) and a supplementary book on using SONAR 3.

It would have been here Friday, but the office was closed when FedEx tried to deliver. I called Cakewalk to get a tracking number — I tend to obsessively track packages when I know they're on the way; I'd tried to get the number Friday, but Cakewalk was closed. After waiting on hold for about twenty minutes, a customer service rep answered, apologized for the wait (their network was having problems) and in the middle of checking my order, his computer crashed. As he was asking if he could get my number to call me back with the tracking information, FedEx arrived. Hooray!

So now I only have to wait for my order from Musician's Friend to show up in the UPS system so I can obsessively track it, and then I'll be satisfied with my setup for quite some time. Unless I see a really good deal on some near-field powered monitors, of course.
