Adobe Photoshop CS3 Extended - Coming Soon
Render and incorporate 3D images into your 2D composites. Stop time with easy editing of motion graphics on video layers. And probe your images with measurement, analysis, and visualization tools.
Mac customers, in particular, have been waiting for Adobe Photoshop CS3 as it represents the first version of Photoshop that will run natively (at full speed) on Apple's Intel Macs. A beta version of CS3 has been available since December.
Adobe is offering a FAQ (pdf) about the new Extended edition. No pricing announcements have been made yet, but the release has been reported to be on March 27th at a special event in New York.

(View all)I remember seeing stats somewhere from a survey of pro users as to when they would shift to the Intel based Mac Pro's. I can't remember the exact results (and can't find the survey anywhere) but a majority of users said they were waiting for Photoshop and other software to be native. But if there is no news of new Mac Pro's how long will people hold out even after the release of key pro software?
I know I am waiting for the next gen Intel Mac Pro's to replace my G5 tower -- but I am not a pro user -- I just want a new machine!
I hope Apple and Adobe have been working together around the release (and shipping) dates so that those of us waiting can have all new stuff to play with
As discussed elsewhere, many pro users have been waiting for this -- and other pro software. I am hoping Apple comes out with new pro machines in the not too distant future
All the pieces are beginning to come together.......;)
I'm going to China in June. I should pick up a copy of CS3. It's only 10RMB, $1.50 or so.
Do yourself a favor and buy 100 and sell em on eBay. (or through PM's Here!)
Just kidding...of course.

Yeah... Good idea. $50.00 each. I will buy 50,000 copies. So, I can make $2,500,000.00 I'm going to be the next Bill Gates in 5 years.
"A Friend" bought CS2 several months ago for 30 RMB (abt $4). I have, er my friend has, trouble finding mac SW for much less than that, but maybe you have a "source"?
By the way, my "friend" also told me that the version of CS2 he got was about 2x slower than it should have been. When he checked the "version" number of the build, he found out it was some kind of debug build. So, he thinks what you get on the street for $3-4 isn't always so great! He's since gone back to using his properly purchased CS version, and is eagerly awaiting downloading a properly legal version of CS3.
On the other hand, my "friend" also has a copy of aperture which he got for free from an authorized apple dealer (tai ping yang shu ma guang chang ping guo dian nao shang dian - they were unwilling to sell it to him because it would take x weeks to arrive, and so would only give him a copy - it's the chinese model, pay for hardware - never EVER pay for media of any kind - legal versions of stuff aren't even AVAILABLE in most stores - hard to come by). If it was available for purchase online, he would have bought it, but it's not. Anyway, he's had no problems with that.
