Cassini is now in Rev 166 which sounds quite exciting for us Titan affectionados. See the description here; http://www.ciclops.org/view/7206/Rev166?js=1
An upclose view of Adiri and a SAR swath that will revisit some small lakes near 80N and 150W previously recorded in T16 and T19 are some Titan related highlights. Using VP's swath maps, Machi's labeled swath map and a grid and the coordinate given in the ciclops preview (red x marks the spot) I've guessed at some of the small lakes that may be visited below.

In a presentation today Jason Soderblom showed some great VIMS specular reflections from the T83 and T85 flybys. So bright at 5 microns that they saturated the VIMS detector; about twice as bright as adjacent pixels at 2 microns.
