Adobe Releases Beta Version of Photoshop CS3
Adobe Systems Incorporated introduced 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 Windows XP and Windows Vista computers.

The final shipping release of Adobe Photoshop CS3 is planned for Spring 2007.

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.
