Shameless plug: Helvetica is available as a digital download from iTunes, as of Tuesday. And guess which font film is already the the #1 documentary on iTunes? You got it. And it just knocked off 27 Dresses for the #15 spot for all iTunes movies. Go design docs!

I wish I was at TypeCon!!!

Cheers,

-Gary

Laz, the dvd is better... 90 minutes of extras. You get to see Spiekermann trash Arial.

David, there will actually be an announcement a week from now about the new film, stay tuned...

Cheers

"trash" doesn't even begin to describe that section :-)

I just got back from seeing him trash it again at Typecon (as well as Arial Narrow). He's extremely funny -- if you get a chance to see him speak, don't miss out.

He was in good form - I was glad to help out by sitting in the front row.
