Review: Adobe CS3 a Worthy Successor

Adobe’s Creative Suite has reached its third iteration, and CS3 brings with it quite a few changes - some minor and some remarkable. This review will cover the new editions of both Photoshop and Illustrator, the two programs I use the most frequently.
I (Karl Kwasny) am the lead designer for BetaNews (new site is coming soon!) and primarily an illustrator by trade, so I hope that my somewhat unconventional perspective (that is to say, I am not a photographer) might give a fresh angle to the reviews already out there.
