Delphi Prism 2010 White Paper (by Brian Long)

Since a couple of weeks the European Embarcadero site hosts a white paper by Brian Long on Delphi Prism 2010. As for my paper and the one of Bob Swart on REST and DataSnap (respectively) you have to leave your contact information to download the white paper and there is a large series of videos (in this case 6) covering the white paper content. As a Delphi and .NET expert, Brian does a very good job explaining Delphi Prism in details.

As there isn't a single page listing them all, here is the list of white papers on Delphi 2010 (the three on the European site and the one by Cary Jensen):

Bob Swart, mini site: http://www.embarcadero-info.com/in_action/radstudio/db.html
Marco Cantu, mini site: http://www.embarcadero-info.com/in_action/radstudio/rest.html
Brian Long, mini site: http://www.embarcadero-info.com/in_action/radstudio/prism.html
Cary Jensen, PDF: http://www.embarcadero.com/images/dm/technical-papers/delphi-unicode-migration.pdf

Delphi 2009 white papers (including a few I wrote), instead, are listing on the Developer Network site at http://edn.embarcadero.com/whitepapers.

Delphi Prims 2010 White Paper by Brian Long

I started to fill those forms asking personal data 
just to download those kind of material with fake, 
absurd and funny data - just to show how useless they 
are.
Marketing people should discover the head is not only 
used to host stylish hairdo, and a mouth to eat and 
show silly smiles. But they never think what's inside 
the box.

There seems to be no way of downloading the videos. 

It's time someone told the people at Embi that high
speed internet access is not universal, and esp.
Delphi has a large following outside of this
privileged group of people.

...not only that, but there is no way of downloading
the white papers!!!

The page that says "You can now download the following
Whitepapers with Code Samples:" lists them, but you
cannot view or download them.

Dear "Delphi Fan" the videos are on YouTube, and I think 
there are "unofficial" ways to download them. As for the 
papers, I was able to see the PDF and save it after 
filling the form.

I was wondering what you meant by "Delphi Prims".

Now I know that you meant "Delphi Prism". LOL!

Thanks for the link.
