Has anyone tried out the iPod art tour on Westerdam?

This was supposed to be launched July 30 - just curious how its working out?

Brian,

We just got off the Westerdam on Sunday. The IPod tour was well publicized but didn't appear to be too busy. We were so involved looking for and at Stephen Card's paintings that we didn't have time or energy to do the IPod tour. They certainly did overdo the art auctions though, and I think the Ipod tour is a planned introduction to the art sales.

We were very impressed with Westerdam, it has a "Wow" factor but is still very much a HAL ship, AND very well organized.

Was just scanning the HAL site...

 

Apparently, there's now an Art Tour for Oosterdam too!

That's really cool! I was hoping they'd do something like this for those of us with our own iPods who don't want to rent one of theirs!

This is a great idea. I do not expect such progressive things from HAL, but I may have to change my opinion.

I downloaded this to my iPod. I'm not a big art person but thought I would give it a try if I got bored or had some time on my hands. I downloaded one once for the San Diego Zoo which was neat because it was giving me "insider" information as I was standing at an exhibit.
