I haven't upgraded to CS3. I moved my primary workflow to Lightroom instead, and use CS2 occasionally when I need to do more selective and/or compositing -oriented editing in addition. I find this setup more productive for my work, I use Lightroom to manage the entire photographic workflow from import to print/export to finished files. But you can continue with what you're doing at no additional cost. Download the "Camera Raw/DNG Converter v4.3.1" bundle from Adobe. Don't bother installing the Camera Raw plugin, it won't work. Install the standalone DNG Converter application. Add a step at the beginning of your workflow to run all your PEF files through DNG Converter ... you can target the card as input and a folder on the computer as output. This will render the PEF files into DNG files that are completely compatible with CS2 + Bridge + Camera Raw v3.7 with no further ado.
