OK, maybe I'm just not getting it. I've been using CS3 beta the past couple of days just to get familiar with what it offers over CS2. I'm finding that all the tools that I've been excited about in Lightroom (the curves controls, vibrance slider, grayscale tools, exposure sliders, etc.) are ALL in CS3 too! Admittedly, the library, slideshow module, etc. are not as handy, etc. But the meat of Lightroom appears to be well addressed in CS3.
SOoo, why would I need or want Lightroom ? I'm sort of confused as to how the two programs "compliment" each other or what the plan is for marketing ? I can certainly see why someone would purchase Lightroom if they were not already using the full Photoshop. However, if they are using CS2 and migrate to CS3, not sure I understand where Lightroom would fit now ?
Anyone else have any thoughts about this or maybe someone can point a good reason where a photographer would want/need both ?
Happy holidays everyone..

CS3? Beta? CS3 dates from 2007.

Perhaps you might consider at least the digital asset management and printing capabilities of Lightroom.

For a DAM, for the print module among others, for the ability to work with multiple images very quickly without having to actual 'open' each and everyone of them, into memory, within Photoshop before you can do anything whatsoever.
