Folks, thanks to Brian for showing me where to find FI, blotter is now up and running. But just fresh out of the box, i ran into this small error in all three of the example scripts. Seems like the getPrice function has been relocated elsewhere.

Error in updatePosPL(Portfolio = pname, Symbol = as.character(symbol),  :
  could not find function "getPrice"

I'm on R 2.11.0 with xts 0.7-1,  and quantmod 0.3-13, just updated couple weeks ago.

Thanks.
