I have barely scratched the surface of CS2, and haven't yet found anything I can't do with it. It seems to me that CS3 hasn't been out that long and product lifecycles are getting ever shorter. Do I feel any need to upgrade to a later version? No. Are the public getting ever more pressurised to feel that they have to get the latest? Yes.
These premium software packages are not at all cheap, I'll get the maximum value I can out of what I've got. The only benefit I see is that CS3 will drop in price to something fare more sensible. BTW, you can get CS2 at a very reasonable price now if you look hard enough.
