Adobe Releases Beta Version of Photoshop CS3

Company Also Previews Adobe Bridge and All-New Adobe Device Central

SAN JOSE, Calif. - Dec. 14, 2006 - Adobe Systems Incorporated

(Nasdaq:ADBE) will introduce a beta version of Adobe Photoshop CS3 software, the next release of the world standard in digital imaging, on Friday, December 15th. Adobe is delivering a widely available Photoshop CS3 beta to enable customers to more easily transition to the latest hardware platforms, particularly Apple's new Intel-based systems. The beta is available as a Universal Binary for the Macintosh platform, as well as for Microsoft(r) Windows(r) XP and Windows Vista computers. The final shipping release of Adobe Photoshop CS3 is planned for Spring 2007. The software can be downloaded at: ADOBE , in the early hours Pacific Standard Time on December 15.

Packed with new features, Photoshop CS3 beta also includes a pre-release version of a major upgrade to Adobe Bridge, as well as a preview release of the all-new Adobe Device Central. Photoshop customers can use Adobe Device Central to design, preview, and test compelling mobile content, created specifically for smaller screens. This new tool, integrated in the Photoshop CS3 beta, simplifies and accelerates the creation of mobile content through a preview environment and built-in device profiles.

"This is an exciting time for the Mac, and Adobe wanted to ease the move to new Intel-based systems with a preview release of Photoshop CS3," said John Loiacono, senior vice president of Creative Solutions Business Unit at Adobe. "We didn't want to leave Windows customers out of the party, so the beta is available to everyone in the creative industry's most passionate user community -- no matter what their platform choice.

We still have some surprises in store, but this beta gives customers an early chance to see the power of another great Photoshop release, optimized and tuned to run natively on the latest hardware and operating systems."

To utilize Adobe Photoshop CS3 beta, customers require a serial number from either Adobe Photoshop CS2, Adobe Creative Suite(r) 2, Adobe Creative Suite Production Studio, Adobe Design Bundle, Adobe Web Bundle or Adobe Video Bundle. Adobe Photoshop CS3 beta is available in English only. Customers who have a valid serial number for all other language versions of qualifying Adobe products can download the software. Without a serial number, users can still download Adobe Photoshop CS3 beta, with the product expiring after two days. Customers must register online with Adobe or have an existing Adobe.com membership account to access the software.

In related previews of future technologies, Adobe has also released two new web tools as beta releases. Adobe CSS Advisor is a new web-based community site to easily identify and resolve browser compatibility issues. Web designers and developers can contribute their own issues, comment on existing issues, or become an editor to participate in driving the site's future. The site is accessible at: www.adobe.com/go/cssadvisor. Also introduced is a beta release of Adobe Spry framework for Ajax, a designer-focused solution for adding the interactive power of Ajax when developing rich, dynamic web-sites. Adobe Spry framework for Ajax is available at: www.adobe.com/go/cssadvisor.

Ho sentito dire che per chi non ha il seriale della CS2 dovrebbe durare 2 giorni e invece per chi ce l'ha questa beta dura 30 giorni. È vero?

hai sentito bene:

"Customers who have a valid serial number for all other language versions of qualifying Adobe products can download the software. Without a serial number, users can still download Adobe Photoshop CS3 beta, with the product expiring after two days"

Bella notizia, sopratuttto per possessori di MAcIntel. Speriamo che la CS3 non sia troppo pesante per i PPC

Da quel che si vede sembra che abbiano lavorato molto sul layout dell'applicazione. io sinceramente lo proverò (finchè è gratis) ma di sicuro non passerò al CS3 almeno fino a quando non sentirò l'esigenza di un mac Intel. Fino ad oggi l'abbinata PowerMac e CS2 è la più efficace, logico che quando dovrò cambiare macchina cambierò anche il SW.

è un bel download e con i problemi che ho io con l'adsl è un problemino, mentre scaricavo mio fratello ha spento il router che programma di download manager potrei usare?

a parte questo da quanto ho letto in giro pare che la cs3 sia mooolto più veloce sopattutto in avvio anche rispetto a cs2 su ppc. vero?

[Melquiades]

A me in avvio sembra veramente molto lenta, tanto quanto la CS2 onestamente

[marpy]

ho problemi nel scaricarla ... un download manager buono e consigliato?... con cerca non l'ho trovato...
