Adobe: New Version of Creative Suite Software
Adobe Systems, the maker of Photoshop and Acrobat software, started public trials of its next-generation design software on Tuesday.
The company released beta versions of its Dreamworks Web site creation software, Fireworks graphics program and Soundbooth audio editing program on its Adobe Labs site.
The beta software is available for free download.
Adobe has yet to start public trials of the CS4 versions of other programs in the CS4 suite, which includes Photoshop and Illustrator.
Adobe declined to comment on when it will release CS4, saying that doing so could hurt CS3 sales because customers would hold off on purchases so that they can get the latest features from CS4.
This is awesome news. Hopefully we will see Photoshop and Illustrator soon. Bring on CS4 I say!
I downloaded the Beta versions from the Adobe website above and have been playing around with both Dreamweaver and Fireworks and quite them both. It will be very interesting to see what Photoshop and Illustrator are like.
