Now that would be a step in the right direction! I find Bridge
rather constraining but liked the feel of Lightroom beta trial. A
bundled update from CS2 to CS3 which included Lightroom and dropped
Bridge might be relatively easy on the pocket. I work with RAW
photos from a Nikon camera which produces .NEF files that annoyingly
iPhoto will not recognise. Currently I do it all in PhotoShopCS2
with the initial processing batched using a droplet. I save the
output, which are flattened .psd files, in iPhoto in a series of
libraries accessed via iPhoto Library Manager. Very occasionally I
have to go back to the archived original .NEF raw files. It would be
nice if they went straight into iPhoto, untouched and became the
archive. Another path would seem to be via .dng but iPhoto will not
handle that either. Aperture is fine apart from the money, and would
reinforce my loyalty to Apple, given I already have and like iPhoto.
It's a dilemma indeed.
I will keep watching this space!
Best wishes
Severin

maybe not officially but the title and all links at the Lightroom
website has changed.
hmmm do I hear "CS 3 bundle app" and "goodbye Adobe Bridge"?
